Justice Minister Amir Ohana responded to the shift in the US position on Jewish communities in Judea and Samaria.
"Real news that marks the recognition of the connection between the Jewish people and the Land of Israel, and also the deep connection between the two leaders, Netanyahu and Trump."
"This move, which will undoubtedly benefit the State of Israel in the international arena in the legal fight for our rights in our country, joins a series of significant moves the Trump administration has made in recent years. This is further evidence that Israel-US relations have never been better," Ohana said.
