State Dept: Israel would have to allow Palestinian Jerusalem consulate – The US closed its consulate to the Palestinians in 2018, when it openly recognized Jerusalem as Israel’s capital and moved its embassy there. | The Jerusalem Post
The US State Department has confirmed it cannot open a consulate for the Palestinians in Jerusalem without Israel’s authorization.
Sen. Bill Hagerty (R-Tennessee) this week proposed a bill to ensure that the only US diplomatic entity in Jerusalem would be the US Embassy. During a Senate Foreign Relations Committee hearing on Wednesday, he asked Deputy Secretary of State for Management and Resources Brian McKeon about the matter.
