(ANSA) - TEL AVIV, JUNE 14 - Today, a year later, the "practical steps" begin for the foundation of 'Ramat Trump', the location on the Golan Heights dedicated by Prime Minister BenyaminNetanyahu to the American president for his recognition of sovereignty on the area conquered in Syria during the 6 Day War of 1967. The announcement was made by the Prime Minister himself in the government meeting in Jerusalem. Ramat Trump (in Hebrew the 'Trump Heights') until last June was called Bruchim, an agglomeration of small country houses perched on a hill where 15 people lived, mainly Russian immigrants. According to the development plans, the place is expected to grow thanks to the arrival of American and Canadian Jews. Highly bucolic but rather isolated, Bruchim - now Trump city - was part of Kela Alon, a much more affluent and organized settlement. The ceremony for the new name was attended by the entire Israeli government and US ambassador David Friedman.
