Former U.S. President Joe Biden has revealed in a new memoir that he did not trust Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
Globalinfo.az reports that he wrote about this in his new memoir titled “Promise Me, America.”
Biden also criticized the Israeli government’s military operations in the Gaza Strip and accused Netanyahu of seeking to protect his own political position more than his country’s long-term interests.
The former president said there was not enough mutual trust in his relationship with Netanyahu.
He expressed concern that the head of the Israeli government could manipulate facts and use democratic institutions for his own personal political purposes.
Biden also addressed the severe humanitarian consequences of Israel’s military operations in Gaza:
“A large number of innocent Palestinians lost their lives. People with no connection to Hamas suffered excessively. I still carry the weight of all this with me.”
