Nikki Haley said that she depended on her “core values” to defend Israel in the U.N. when she was presented with the Theodor Herzl Award Wednesday for her unwavering support of the Jewish state in the world body during her tenure as U.S. ambassador.

Accusing the Security Council of following years of “unquestioned, outdated customs” like “a monthly Israel-bashing session,” she told the appreciative audience that her strength to counter it came from “not [being] afraid to rely on your core values.” For Haley, this includes “standing up for your friends.”
