MIDDLE EAST
The United States recognized Jerusalemas Israel’s capital in 2017 without taking a positionon the specific boundaries of Israeli sovereignty.
The West Bank is Israeli occupied with current status subject to the Israeli-Palestinian Interim Agreement; permanent status to be determined through further negotiation.
The status of the Gaza Strip is a final status issue to be resolved through negotiations.
Boundary representation is not necessarily authoritative.
