Israel and the United States have signed an agreement to allocate land for the permanent building of the U.S. Embassy in Jerusalem.

Axar.az reports that Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Sa'ar announced the agreement in a post on X, saying he signed the document together with U.S. Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee.

"Together with U.S. Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee, we just signed the agreement to allocate the site for the permanent building of the U.S. Embassy in Jerusalem, the capital of Israel," Sa'ar wrote.

He described U.S. President Donald Trump's 2018 decision to relocate the embassy to Jerusalem as "one of the most important diplomatic decisions ever made."

"The decision of U.S. President Donald Trump to move the embassy to Jerusalem is one of the most important diplomatic decisions ever made, and it delivered historic justice. In its wake, more countries have done, and are doing the same," he said.

Sa'ar added that the agreement represents "another milestone in the unbreakable alliance" between Israel and the United States.

"Just as the U.S. is vital and irreplaceable for Israel, Israel is vital for the U.S. and its interests in the region. We will continue to strengthen the relations between the countries," he wrote.
