Posted by Jill Biden, wife of US President Joe Biden, has privately encouraged him to cease the bloodshed in Gaza, according to the Guardian UK.
According to the allegation, Jill pleaded with Biden to “stop it, stop it now” in reference to the conflict in Gaza, which the President told White House visitors.
Biden explained this to his guests during a meeting with Muslim community members on Tuesday.
According to the New York Times, an attendee informed Biden that his wife had objected to him attending the dinner since the President supported Israel in its battle in Gaza.
According to the article, Mr. Biden responded that he understood. According to an attendee who heard his words, the first lady had been asking him to “stop it, stop it now.”
When asked about the President’s words, the White House stated Jill Biden did not call for Israel to cease its conflict in Gaza, according to the daily.
