The new American envoy to Israel is “a great guy,” says former Israeli ambassador to the US Michael Oren.

Michael Oren, former Israeli ambassador to the United States, discusses the nomination of Thomas Nides as the new ambassador to Israel by the US Senate.

Nides grew up in a Zionist home and cares deeply about Israel, Oren said.

Considering the Biden administration’s belief in the two-state solution, “we’ll have to learn to disagree as friends,” Oren said.

It will “really test our friendship.”
