	Eric Adams on Foreign Policy

Staunch supporter of Israel; won't call for ceasefire

Mayor Eric Adams defended his staunch support of Israel in the wake of growing calls for a ceasefire in Gaza and almost daily protests across the city. "I stand up strong for people," Adams said at a City Hall roundtable with members of Jewish media outlets. He cited instances when he stood with Muslims and other groups when they had come under attack. And while he has bemoaned the deaths of innocents since the war began, he has not called for Israel to restrain itself in Gaza. Source: The Forward on 2025 NYC Mayoral race , Apr 9, 2024
