Former US Vice President Kamala Harris criticized Donald Trump, alleging that he was “dragged” into the ongoing conflict with Iran by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and used the situation to divert attention from domestic disputes.Speaking at an event hosted by the Michigan Democratic Women’s Caucus in Detroit on Saturday, Harris said the war was a war the American people do not want. Reiterating her claim on the origins of the conflict, Harris said Trump “entered the war, Bibi Netanyahu dragged him into it,” referring to the Israeli leader.However, Netanyahu has previously rejected such allegations, calling them “fake news”.According to news agency ANI, he further alleged that Trump’s “Operation Epic Fury” was a weak attempt to divert attention from the “Epstein files”.

claim to shift to US foreign policy Approach
Elaborating on foreign policy, Harris claimed that Trump has fundamentally changed America’s global stance. “This president is the first president of the United States of any party since World War II who has abdicated America’s responsibility to nurture and protect our alliances, our friendships,” he said.He further alleged that Trump has rejected key international norms. “Don’t even pretend and actually dismiss the importance of upholding international rules and norms such as sovereignty and territorial integrity,” he said.According to Harris, these actions have made the United States “untrustworthy” to its allies and weakened its global influence.Beyond foreign policy, Harris also touched on domestic issues, including health care, the economy, and reproductive rights. Expressing confidence in the prospects of the Democratic Party, he said that he is hopeful that it will win the midterm elections to be held in November.
