Jerusalem Mayor Nir Barkat has decided to rename a square near the future location of the US Embassy in Jerusalem after US President Donald Trump, the administration of Jerusalem said in a press release on Tuesday.

“President Trump has taken the decision to recognize Jerusalem as the capital of the Jewish people, to stand up for the truth and to do the right thing. Naming the square after the president is our way of showing love and respect for the president and the US people, who always stand by Israel,” Barkat was quoted as saying in the statement.

The Jerusalem Municipality plans to hold an official opening ceremony of the renamed square with the participation of US officials in the coming months, the statement added.
