Netanyahu: Within 7 years we aim to end US military aid

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced on Sunday a plan to gradually cut off US military aid within the next seven years.

Speaking about the country's strategic vision, Netanyahu emphasized that Israel must strengthen its independence in the field of defense and rely more on its own capabilities.

"Israel must be self-sufficient and rely on its own forces," he declared, implying that the government aims to reduce dependence on military support from the United States.

According to the announced plan, the process will develop gradually over the next seven years, and is expected to be accompanied by increased investments in the domestic defense industry and the country's strategic capacities.
