The Government Of Russia Says That Trump’s Declaration That Jerusalem Is The Capital Of Israel Is Only Part Of An American Policy To Provoke The Middle East To More Violence

When Trump declared that Jerusalem is the capital of Israel, did he open up the Book of Zechariah to see the status of Jerusalem as the eternal capital of the state of Israel? Only President Trump can answer that one. But the Russians have a different explanation, and that is that the US government is further trying to destabilize the Middle East, as part of a foreign policy plan of engineered chaos that they have been applying to the North Korean situation, and the situations of Iraq and Syria. Major members of the government of Russia are warning that Trump’s declaration that Jerusalem is the capital of Israel is only part of an American foreign policy to provoke the Middle East to more violence. Here is a report from RT:

Senior Russian lawmakers have called the decision by US President Donald Trump to recognize Jerusalem as the capital of Israel a dangerous move that could cause a wave of painful aftershocks in international politics.

Trump’s decision to recognize Jerusalem as the Israeli capital and the plan to relocate the US embassy [in Israel] to this city is a continuation of a string of provocations in American foreign policy, which we are continuously witnessing in relation to Syria, Iran and North Korea, among others,” said Leonid Slutsky, head of the State Duma Committee for International Relations, RIA Novosti reported on Thursday.

The lawmaker also noted in his comments that Trump’s move could potentially “explode the situation in the zone of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.”

Head of the Upper House Committee for Information Policy, Senator Aleksey Pushkov, wrote on Twitter that the US president’s decision was a global shock with potentially dire consequences. “The whole world except for Israel is in a state of shock because of Trump’s decision. He has brought a new fuse to the old powder keg. I am confident that this is not the last shock,” he said.

On Wednesday, US President Donald Trump signed a declaration officially recognizing Jerusalem as the capital of Israel, and announced the plans to relocate the American embassy from Tel Aviv to the city. “Today, we finally acknowledge the obvious – that Jerusalem is Israel’s capital. This is nothing more or less than a recognition of reality,” Trump said.

Israel is a sovereign nation with a right like every other sovereign nation to determine its own capital. Acknowledging this as a fact is a necessary condition for achieving peace,” continued the US president, who called Israel “one of the most successful democracies in the world.”
