The United States may soon review its relationships with countries it deems anti-Israel, according to Elan Carr, the State Department’s special envoy for monitoring and combating anti-Semitism.

In a speech in March, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said that opposition to Israel’s existence as a homeland for the Jewish people was a form of anti-Semitism or hostility toward Jews. He said these views were rising worldwide: “The Trump administration opposes it unequivocally and we will fight it relentlessly. Anti-Zionism is anti-Semitism.”
