David Friedman has been appointed by U.S President-elect Donald Trump, to serve as America’s ambassador to Israel.
The 57-year-old is a legal practitioner who advised Mr Trump on U.S-Israel issues during the campaign.
A statement by Trump’s transition team said Friedman’s “strong relationships in Israel would form the foundation of his diplomatic mission”.
Friedman on the other hand expressed that he is looking forward to working “from the U.S embassy in Israel’s eternal capital, Jerusalem”; a move that would anger Palestinians.
Mr trump had promised during the presidential campaign to move it to Jerusalem, one of several overtures he made to Israel.
