The Trump administration is set to move the US embassy in Israel to Jerusalem Monday, formally breaking from decades of established American policy and international practice in a move that US officials say will create greater regional stability. The State Department stated that "As the President stated on December 6, 2017, the historic opening of our embassy recognizes the reality that Jerusalem is the capital of Israel and the seat of its government". But Aaron David Miller, a vice president at the Wilson Center, former Mideast negotiator for Democratic and Republican administrations, and CNN contributor said that: "It's hard to see the Jerusalem issue as anything but a continuing source of political impasse in negotiations and that ensures virtually no deal and the likelihood of violence over Jerusalem in the future".
