The Biden administration has faced conflicting statements regarding the imposition of conditions on military aid to Israel. Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell dismissed calls for conditions on US aid to Israel. Democratic senators conveyed that any further assistance to Israel must align with US interests. Despite Biden's earlier comment, the White House officials and National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan stated that they are not seeking conditionality on Israel aid, with the White House quietly walking back Biden's comment on adding conditions for sending assistance to Israel.
