The merger of the Jerusalem consulate into the Israeli embassy is said to improve 'efficiency and effectiveness,' not an actual change in policy.

The US embassy officially opened in Jerusalem last May on the same day Palestinians commemorate 70 years since the Nakba.

But Palestinian leaders have seen the decision as another move against them by US President Donald Trump’s administration, which they froze contact with after his 2017 decision recognising Jerusalem as Israel’s capital. US ambassador to Israel David Friedman has been a supporter of Israeli settlement building in the occupied West Bank and Palestinians view him as blatantly biased in favour of Israel.
