Newly appointed Prime Minister Liz Truss declared her undying support for Zionism and Israel during a conference with the Conservative Friends of Israel on Sunday.

“I am so pleased to be here for the first time at the CFI event as your Prime Minister,” Truss said. “As you know, I am a huge Zionist, I am a huge supporter of Israel, and I know that we can take the UK-Israel relationship from strength to strength.”

“Believe me, the UK will never allow – together with our allies – Iran to get a nuclear weapon,” Truss pledged, echoing a top Israeli priority.
