美国总统唐纳德·特朗普及其顶级外交政策助手、国务卿马可·卢比奥未就英国、法国、加拿大等国计划对约旦河西岸定居点实施制裁一事发表谴责，这与这个自称是“史上最亲以色列”的政府的一贯立场形成鲜明对比，是一项值得关注的动向。
多名现任和前任美国官员告诉CNN，他们对于新制裁的最终立场仍不明确。但迄今为止未发出谴责本身就非同寻常，尤其是考虑到本届政府过往对以色列和巴勒斯坦领土的政策——例如解除对约旦河西岸暴力定居者的制裁——以及美国驻以色列最高外交官此前发出的警告。
周三，当被问及制裁事宜时，特朗普采取了不同寻常的克制态度，表示他将“和以色列方面谈谈”。
他对记者表示：“我完全清楚当前局势，但我想弄清楚为什么这件事会突然发生？”消息人士称，英国在周二宣布制裁前曾向美国通报相关情况，包括英国首相安迪·伯纳姆与特朗普的通话内容。
消息人士指出，特朗普和卢比奥的反应可能表明他们对以色列在约旦河西岸的政策感到不安。尽管特朗普曾表示不会允许以色列吞并约旦河西岸，但以色列实际上加强了对该地区的控制，不断扩建定居点并抢占土地。
消息人士称，尽管特朗普政府几乎不可能对以色列实施制裁，但自制裁宣布以来，美国政府高层迄今未予谴责，这引发了美国外交官和美国盟友的关注，他们猜测特朗普是否会转而支持采取某些行动。即使是针对定居点的最轻微措施，都将标志着以色列与其关键盟友美国之间出现重大裂痕，而以色列本身正面临日益严重的国际孤立。
支持制裁，甚至只是持续保持不谴责的态度，可能意味着特朗普对以色列总理本雅明·内塔尼亚胡的不满日益加剧，而内塔尼亚胡将于下个月面临选举。
不过消息人士称，最终的回应取决于特朗普的应对思路——这可能具有战略考量，因为本届政府一方面在国际上继续支持以色列，另一方面国内对于约旦河西岸局势的不满情绪也在不断升温。
卢比奥同样拒绝就新制裁置评或谴责，并在周二间接表达了这种不满情绪。
他对记者表示：“我们不希望看到眼下约旦河西岸出现任何破坏稳定的局面，毕竟当前该地区局势错综复杂。我们认为，这也会影响我们在加沙、20点计划以及我们全力投入的和平委员会方面取得进展的能力。”
“显然，我们不会采取英国那样的做法，”卢比奥说道，但他补充道，“我们已获悉他们将做出这项决定，也听取了他们做出此举的理由。”
当被要求置评时，白宫让CNN参考特朗普周三的表态。
美国前驻以色列大使丹尼尔·夏皮罗表示，最初未发出谴责“至少代表本届政府在一定程度上意识到，以色列极端分子在约旦河西岸的暴力行为，以及以色列政府中极端主义部长的言论和行动正变得越来越成问题”。
特朗普和卢比奥的简短表态与迈克·哈克比大使的言论形成鲜明对比。哈克比指责英国政府“仇视犹太人”——尽管英国外交大臣本人就是犹太人——并在英国宣布制裁前警告此举可能对“英国企业产生巨大影响”。
一名白宫官员表示，这些言论并未与白宫或国务院协调。
一位前美国高级官员告诉CNN，哈克比的“反应符合他数十年来表达的个人观点，即以色列、定居点以及约旦河西岸问题的看法”。
“这或许正是外界预料之中的结果，因为基于本届政府的过往历史和此前表达的立场，许多人原本就预计这会是政府的最初回应，”该官员补充道。
在特朗普第二任期初期，本届政府解除了拜登政府对暴力以色列定居者实施的制裁。与国际伙伴不同，美国未公开谴责以色列推进E1定居点项目的计划，该项目实际上将约旦河西岸划分为南北两部分，几乎断绝了建立一个毗连巴勒斯坦国的可能。E1项目还将东耶路撒冷——未来巴勒斯坦国的设想首都——与该领土其他部分分割开来。
以色列极右翼财政部长贝扎莱尔·斯莫特里奇明确将扩建定居点作为“埋葬”巴勒斯坦国构想的手段。当E1项目获得最终批准时，斯莫特里奇表示：“我们不是用口号，而是用行动将巴勒斯坦国从谈判桌上抹去。”以色列在1967年的战争中占领了东耶路撒冷和约旦河西岸。根据国际法，这两地均被视为被占领土，当地的以色列定居点也被广泛认为是非法的。
现为大西洋理事会高级研究员的夏皮罗表示，在约旦河西岸的暴力问题上，“鉴于选举因素，特朗普有能力通过相当有限的行动迫使内塔尼亚胡让步”。
“内塔尼亚胡极度渴望获得特朗普的支持，如果能公开表态支持最好，即便只是暗中支持也无妨，他当然不希望特朗普发表任何言论，暗示特朗普认为更换政府后情况会更好，”他对CNN说道，“我认为特朗普拥有很大的影响力，但我觉得他尚未真正动用过这种影响力。”
另一位前美国高级官员对内塔尼亚胡能否在选举前约束定居者表示怀疑。
这位前官员将计划中的制裁称为“一次警告性射击”。另一名美国官员则质疑这些制裁是否会奏效。
“此时实施这些制裁正在让以色列民众团结起来，内塔尼亚胡也同样如此，这也印证了他‘全世界都在与我们为敌’的说法，”该官员说道。
Trump administration offers rare muted response on new sanctions against Israel
2026-09-10T18:00:19.235Z / https://www.cnn.com/2026/09/10/politics/trump-netanyahu-israel-sanctions-response
President Donald Trump and his top foreign policy aide, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, have not condemned the United Kingdom, France, Canada and others for their planned sanctions on settlements in the occupied West Bank – a notable development from the self-described “most pro-Israel” administration in history.
Their ultimate position on the new sanctions remains unclear, current and former US officials told CNN. Still, the lack of condemnation thus far is notable, particularly given the administration’s past policies towards Israel and the Palestinian territories – such as the removal of sanctions on violent West Bank settlers – and the warnings from the top US diplomat in Israel.
On Wednesday, asked about the sanctions, Trump took an uncharacteristically reserved tone, saying that he would be “speaking to Israel.”
“I understand exactly what’s going on, but I want to find out why all of a sudden does that happen?” he told reporters. The UK briefed the US, including in a call from Prime Minister Andy Burnham to Trump, ahead of the Tuesday announcement, sources said.
The sources suggested Trump and Rubio’s reaction may indicate discomfort with Israeli policies in the West Bank. Despite Trump saying that he would not allow Israel to annex the West Bank, Israel has only entrenched its control of the territory, expanding settlements and seizing territory.
Though the Trump administration is highly unlikely to levy sanctions against Israel, the lack of condemnation from the top of the administration in the days since the sanctions were announced is piquing interest from US diplomats and US allies alike, said sources, who wonder if Trump may land in favor of taking some action. Even the smallest measures against settlements would mark a major rift between Israel and its key ally, the United States, as it faces growing isolation from the international community.
Backing the sanctions, or even a continued lack of condemnation, may signal Trump’s mounting frustration with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu who faces an election next month.
However, sources say a response ultimately boils down to how Trump wants to respond – and it may be strategic, as the administration navigates a continued backing of Israel externally with growing internal discontent about the situation in the West Bank.
Rubio, who also declined to comment or condemn the new sanctions, nodded to that frustration on Tuesday.
“We don’t want to see anything destabilizing going on right now in the West Bank with so much going on in the region. We think it has implications as well on our ability to make progress with regards to Gaza and the 20-point plan and Board of Peace that we’re very committed to,” he told reporters.
“Obviously, we’re not going to do what the UK did,” Rubio said, but added, “We were made aware that they were going to make this decision. We heard their arguments as to why.”
When asked for commment the White House referred CNN to Trump’s Wednesday comments.
Former US Ambassador to Israel Daniel Shapiro said the lack of initial condemnation “represents at least some degree of recognition on the part of the administration that the violence by Israeli extremists at the West Bank, and the statements and actions of the extremist ministers in the Israeli government are becoming problematic.”
The brief comments from Trump and Rubio stand in contrast to those from Amb. Mike Huckabee, who accused the British government of “Jew hate” – despite the foreign secretary being Jewish – and warned ahead of the UK’s announcement that it could have a “huge impact on British businesses.”
Those remarks had not been coordinated with the White House or the State Department, a White House official said.
A former senior US official told CNN that Huckabee’s “reaction was consistent with his own views, as expressed for decades, about Israel and about settlements and about the West Bank.”
“It’s probably what he expected, because many people would have expected that that would have been the administration’s initial response, based on their history and the views they’ve previously expressed,” they noted.
In the early days of Trump’s second term, the administration lifted sanctions imposed under the Biden administration on violent Israeli settlers. The US, unlike international partners, has not publicly condemned Israel’s plans to advance the E1 settlement project, which effectively divides the West Bank into north and south, making a contiguous Palestinian state virtually impossible. E1 also splits East Jerusalem – the envisioned capital of a future Palestinian state – from the rest of the territory.
Israel’s far-right Finance Minister, Bezalel Smotrich, has explicitly championed the expansion of settlement as a way to “bury” the idea of a Palestinian state. “The Palestinian state is being erased from the table not with slogans but with actions,” Smotrich said when E1 received its final approval. Israel captured East Jerusalem and the West Bank in the 1967 war. Both are considered occupied territories under international law, and Israeli settlements there are widely regarded as illegal.
Shapiro, now a senior fellow at the Atlantic Council, said that when it comes to the violence in the West Bank, “that’s something that Trump has leverage to force Netanyahu’s hand with a fairly limited action because of the election.”
Netanyahu “badly wants Trump’s support, explicit if possible, implicit if not, and certainly doesn’t want him to make some expression that suggests Trump thinks things would be better with a different government,” he told CNN. “I think Trump’s got a lot of leverage, but I don’t think he’s really used it yet.”
Another former senior US official expressed doubt that Netanyahu would rein in the settlers in before the election.
This former official called the planned sanctions “a warning shot.” Another US official questioned whether they will be effective.
“These sanctions coming now are rallying people around Israel and somewhat around Netanyahu, giving credence to his argument that the world is against us now,” they said.
