Boric’s administration recalled its ambassador to Israel earlier this week amid the ongoing Israeli war on Gaza. Boric was meeting with Biden in the Oval Office during his trip to the US for the Americas Partnership for Economic Prosperity Leaders’ Summit. The presidents did not speak about the conflict publicly during their remarks.

But after, Boric comes outside and speaks in Spanish.

“What is happening in the Gaza Strip is simply unacceptable,” he said.
