The world must open its eyes - Terror is Terror is Terror.

I salute Special Representative @jdgreenblatt45 for stating the truth: that Jerusalem is the eternal capital of Israel and the Jewish People. Peace can only be acomplished if it is based on truth.

Robert, dear friend, no one is more worthy than you!

Our thoughts are with our friends in Pittsburgh today after the antisemitic horror at Shabbat services.

The Jewish people - the people of forever - are not afraid. We stand together, shoulder to shoulder, in Israel, America, & around the world.

May their memories be blessed.

Watch my interview with TBN on our plan to remove @UNRWA from Jerusalem.

There are no refugees in #Jerusalem, only residents!

.@NirBarkat speaking out against UNRWA in Jerusalem, shows Knesset members a textbook praising Dalal Mughrabi, who massacred 38 Israelis, including 13 children, in 1978

Thank you @nikkihaley for standing by Israel and the values of truth and justice. The people of Israel and #Jerusalem could not have asked for a better, more articulate friend.

The US decision to stop funding #UNRWA creates an opportunity to deal immediately & decisively with the PA's intention to perpetuate the 'refugee problem' & encourage incitement.

#Jerusalem residents will not be political pawns for the PA's dangerous strategy to destroy Israel!

[Archive:Mayor Nir Barkat @ArchiveNir]

I have developed a plan to end #UNRWA services in #Jerusalem & replace them with the far superior @Jlm_city services, including education, welfare, health & sanitation.

We provide services for all residents alike - there are no refugees in our city.

Happy Independence Day to #Guatemala and President @jimmymoralesgt - true friends of the city of #Jerusalem and the state of #Israel. It’s an honor for us to host your embassy in our eternal capital!

Feliz dia de la Independicia!

It was a pleasure to see you and Chirlane, @NYCMayor!

[Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani @NYCMayor]

It was our honor to host Jerusalem's Mayor @NirBarkat and his wife Beverly for lunch today at Gracie Mansion today.

As we get ready for the Jewish new year, join me on a tour of the greatest city in the world. #ShanaTova from #Jerusalem! 🍎🍯

[Archive:Mayor Nir Barkat @ArchiveNir]

I will travel to the ends of the earth for #Jerusalem & #Israel, just as I visited #Paraguay at the request of PM @netanyahu. Their decision is wrong & only strengthens our enemies. I will continue to fight for united Jerusalem, Israel, & the truth - in every place, in every way.

[Archive:Mayor Nir Barkat @ArchiveNir]

I am removing @UNRWA from #Jerusalem & replacing their failing services with successful municipal initiatives.

Wherever the municipality operates, the Arab public is more satisfied & less violent. Removing UNRWA will reduce incitement & terrorism, and promote unity & sovereignty

[Archive:Mayor Nir Barkat @ArchiveNir]

#UNRWA is not the solution - it's the problem.
I support President @realDonaldTrump in his decision to challenge an organization whose sole purpose is to perpetuate Palestinian victim-hood.
I call on other countries: Join the US in challenging UNRWA.

[Archive:Mayor Nir Barkat @ArchiveNir]

Shabbat Shalom from #Jerusalem!

[Archive:Mayor Nir Barkat @ArchiveNir]

During my official visit to #Paraguay on behalf of PM @netanyahu, I discussed deepening our relationship with our Latin American allies with President @MaritoAbdo & former President @Horacio_Cartes, President @jimmymoralesgt of #Guatemala, and President @IvanDuque of #Colombia.

[Archive:Mayor Nir Barkat @ArchiveNir]

During my official visit to #Paraguay, I had an additional chance to tell outgoing President @Horacio_Cartes: Thank you for standing on the side of the truth and moving your embassy to #Jerusalem! 🇮🇱🇵🇾
