THE HILL- BY JOSEPH CHOI – 02/16/22 11:18 AM EST
Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) landed in Israel on Wednesday as part of a congressional delegation and reiterated the U.S.’s steadfast support for the nations’ security.
“We’re together in the fight against terrorism posed by Iran, both in the region and also its nuclear development,” Pelosi said in a speech at the Knesset. “Israel’s proximity to Iran is a concern to all of us.”
Pelosi travelled to Israel with around a dozen other congressional lawmakers including Democratic Reps. Adam Schiff (Calif.), Ted Deutch (Fla.) and Barbara Lee (Calif.). Some members will also be traveling to Germany and the U.K.
“Our delegation brings the representation of the congress’s bipartisan, bicameral commitment to an unbreakable bond between Israel and the United States. Built on mutual security, our economic interest and our common values, our commitment to democracy,” said Pelosi.
