White House says Trump speaking from 'Jerusalem, Israel'

President Trump spoke Monday from Jerusalem, Israel, at least according to the White House’s own broadcast of the speech.

The reference to Jerusalem as a part of Israel is a small but diplomatically important detail, as the status of the ancient city is one of the most controversial issues yet to be settled in the Israeli-Palestinian peace talks. The United States does not recognize Jerusalem as the capital of Israel, despite an act of Congress urging presidents to do so. Trump was expected to move the U.S. embassy to Jerusalem from Tel Aviv early in his presidency, but that has not happened.
