A Kamala Harris presidency could signal a “change in tone” regarding Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu’s policies in Gaza, NBC reported, citing Aaron David Miller, a senior fellow at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace.
Arab American voters critical of Joe Biden’s approach don’t see Harris as being “responsible” for his policies, Miller said, adding that he expected a “more balanced rhetorical posture” from her.
In March, NBC reported that White House National Security Council officials had to “tone down” parts of Harris’ speech about the need for a six-week ceasefire. She is expected to meet with Netanyahu during his visit to the US this week, during which he will address Congress and meet President Biden at the White House.
