US President Donald Trump's nominee for ambassador to London, Warren Stephens, plans to ask the UK to reverse its partial suspension of arms exports to Israel. Stephens expressed concern over the decision and stated that he would encourage the reinstatement of permits to support Israel's fight. The UK Prime Minister, Keir Starmer, announced the suspension in September, citing concerns about potential breaches of humanitarian law. Starmer emphasized that the UK still supports Israel's right to self-defense but is committed to upholding international rule of law.
