US President-elect Donald Trump has chided the Obama administration for its stance toward Israel, shortly before the US secretary of state was set to deliver a speech regarding international opposition to Israeli settlement building.
"We cannot continue to let Israel be treated with such total disdain and disrespect. They used to have a great friend in the U.S., but.......," Trump, a Republican, wrote on Twitter on Wednesday.
"not anymore. The beginning of the end was the horrible Iran deal, and now this (U.N.)! Stay strong Israel, January 20th is fast approaching!" he added, referring to when he takes over the White House from Democratic President Barack Obama.
