Jerusalem and Heritage Minister Rafi Peretz congratulated Joe Biden on his election win.
"I sincerely hope that Biden, a friend of Israel and the Jewish people, will continue the cooperation and strategic alliance between the United States and Israel as we have seen it progress in recent years," he wrote.
"I would like to take this opportunity to thank US President Donald Trump for his friendship and steady partnership. His administration recognized Israel's legal rights over the Golan Heights and Judea and Samaria as the inheritance of our ancestors..."
