Guatemala says it is planning to move its nation’s embassy in Israel to Jerusalem, following the announcement of President Trump about the United States’ embassy location earlier this month.
The decision was made after talking Israeli Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, said Guatemalan President Jimmy Morales.
“We are talking about the excellent relations that we have had as nations since Guatemala supported the creation of the state of Israel,” Morales wrote on his official Facebook page. “So I inform you that I have instructed the chancellor to initiate the respective coordination so that it may be.”
Guatemala was one of only nine nations to vote against a United Nations General Assembly resolution to denounce the Trump administration’s Dec. 6 announcement to recognize Jerusalem as Israel’s capital.
