“Israeli” Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced Tuesday that he will name a settlement in the occupied Syrian Golan Heights after US President Donald Trump as a gesture of thanks to the American president for recognizing so-called "Israeli" sovereignty over the region.

Netanyahu made the announcement in a video statement he made alongside his wife Sara while visiting the northern “Israeli”-occupied Palestine.

"I'm here on the beautiful Golan Heights. All ‘Israelis’ were deeply moved when President Trump made his historic decision to recognize ‘Israel's’ sovereignty over the Golan Heights," he said.

"Therefore, after the Passover holiday, I intend to bring to the government a resolution calling for a new community on the Golan Heights named after President Donald J. Trump. Wishing you a happy holiday," Netanyahu concluded.

In March, Trump met with Netanyahu in Washington to sign a presidential proclamation officially recognizing the Golan Heights as so-called “Israeli” territory, formalizing a move announced a week earlier on Twitter.

Bibi called Trump’s decision to recognize the entity’s so-called sovereignty over the occupied Syrian Golan Heights “historic justice” and a “diplomatic victory,” saying that “‘Israel’ won the Golan Heights in a just war of defense.”

The international community does not recognize “Israeli” sovereignty over the area.
