None
Israel praised Friday a decision by the Honduran parliament to support the country’s transfer of its embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem.
“The State of Israel praises the Honduran Congress for its decision to support the transfer of the embassy to Jerusalem, which was taken with a huge majority,” an Israeli Foreign Ministry statement said. “Prime Minister Netanyahu and the president of Hondura are expected to speak shortly."
Honduran President Juan Orlando Hernández made it clear that the decision was made by the executive branch rather than by other officials.
