	Jon Ossoff on Foreign Policy

Supports Israel, continuing U.S. military aid

He's a supporter of J Street, the liberal pro-Israel group. They supported him too: During his 2017 campaign for House of Representatives, J-Street's political action committee donated tens of thousands of dollars into his campaign. Foreign policy hasn't been a major issue in his races, but he's spoken to J Street's Atlanta chapter. Ossoff has stated that he's a supporter of Israel and continued U.S. military aid to the Jewish state. Source: The Jewish Forward on 2020 Georgia Senate race , Nov 6, 2020

US should play active role in Israel/Palestine diplomacy

On Mideast: "[Israeli Prime Minister] Netanyahu and [Palestinian Authority President] Abbas are total failures," Ossoff added. He emphasized that he was "strongly committed to Israel's security as a homeland for the Jewish people."

"The U.S. should play an active and constructive role in setting the table for and leading the parties toward constructive diplomacy to put land disputes behind them," he told JI, "so that all people who inhabit this region can live in peace and prosperity and security."

Defend the NATO alliance & multinational military exercises

While on Capitol Hill, Jon worked on classified naval, cyber, air, and counterrorism programs. He embarked with the US Navy during multinational military exercises, worked closely with senior officers to improve readiness and capabilities, and helped draft annual defense legislation.

Jon will investigate Russian interference in American politics and defend the NATO alliance, which remains essential to our national security. He will stand with our allies and oppose Russian meddling in Europe.
