Vice President Kamal Harris declined to preside over Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s address to Congress this Wednesday, a source familiar with the matter told CNN.

Vice President Kamala Harris declined to preside over Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s address to Congress on Wednesday, a source familiar with the matter told CNN. The decision to skip the joint meeting underscores the tense relationship between the Biden administration and Netanyahu at a time when the war in Gaza has caused growing backlash from the left. An aide to the vice president said the two world leaders will meet separately later this week.

“And they will discuss efforts to reach agreement on the ceasefire deal.” On Wednesday, Harris is set to address Zeta Phi Beta sorority’s Grand Boule in Indianapolis for a moderated conversation, an effort to engage Black women voters. “Her travel to Indianapolis on July 24 should not be interpreted as a change in her position with regard to Israel,” the aide said. Harris was not the only top Democrat to decline presiding over Netanyahu’s speech.
