LOS ANGELES, California (Reuters)- Independent US presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. offered staunch support for Israel in a Reuters interview, calling it a moral nation that was justly responding to Hamas provocations with its attacks on Gaza and questioning the need for a six-week ceasefire backed by President Joe Biden.
Biden has also been a vocal defender of Israel since the October 7 attack by Hamas, but he has recently pressured the country to stem the humanitarian crisis in Gaza and accelerate a six-week ceasefire for hostage releases and aid delivery.
Asked if he supported a temporary ceasefire in Gaza, Kennedy told Reuters: I dont even know what that means right now.
Kennedy said that each previous ceasefire has been used by Hamas to rearm, to rebuild and then launch another surprise attack. So what would be different this time? he said.
