The Trump administration is expected to announce soon that American citizens born in Jerusalem will be able to indicate in their passports the capital of Israel as the place of birth, US officials told the Politico website today (Wednesday).
In the current situation, Americans who wanted to do so - were refused due to the international non-recognition of the unity of the city.
According to the US report, the decision may be revealed tomorrow at the earliest, a few days before the US presidential election.
If this is done, it will be another step in American recognition of Jerusalem as the capital of Israel.
This, after moving the embassy to the city.
The website further claims that the move may help Trump in the presidential election among the evangelical Christian public. The American source added that American passport holders born in Jerusalem would have the option of indicating Israel as the place of birth or simply writing "Jerusalem." An announcement on the subject is expected to come from the State Department.
