Bernie Sanders told Zeteo that Israel's current administration represents an extremist shift, while praising progressive primary victories against establishment Democrats. The Vermont senator discussed the influence of AIPAC and Prime Minister Netanyahu's role in regional tensions, framing his critique within broader Democratic divisions over Middle East policy.

Sanders also addressed potential successors to his political legacy ahead of 2028, signaling continued support for left-wing challengers within the party.
