How U.S.-Israel relations may shift with new Congress


President Donald Trump earlier this week  said the U.S. will suspend $4 billion in annual aid to Israel next year, but arms sales will continue.

After the midterm elections, how will the new Congress affect U.S.-Israel relations?

“I think it’s already changing,” Nadia Bilbassy-Charters, the Washington bureau chief for the Saudi news channel Al Arabiya, told Compass Points host Nick Schifrin.

Compass Points from PBS News analyzes prominent international affairs topics and America’s role in a shifting world, breaking down global conflicts, rising tensions, and their implications for U.S. interests. Visit the PBS News website to watch this week’s episode.
