Australia's FM: 'We'll not move our embassy to Jerusalem'

Australia's Foreign Affairs Minister Julie Bishop said Saturday that she "rules out moving the country’s embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, despite Canberra’s strong support for Israel."

 

“Jerusalem is a final status issue and we have maintained that position for decades,” Julie Bishop said, according to the Guardian.

 

Bishop also rejected calls to halt aid to Palestinian Authority over payments to "martyrs," saying, "we are doing everything possible to guarantee our funds are used for predetermined purposes."
