Netanyahu to meet Trump at White House for First In-Person Talks Since Iran War

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will hold his first in-person meeting with US President Donald Trump since the start of the Iran war, scheduled for Tuesday at the White House. The meeting comes amid strained relations between the allies over differing public perspectives on military operations.

Both leaders have sought to tone down their exchanges during recent months, focusing instead on maintaining a strong alliance and discussing future peace initiatives. The agenda will include negotiations on a US-sponsored framework deal signed by Israel and Lebanon last month, as well as ongoing concerns in Gaza.

Netanyahu stated: “We understand the importance of this meeting... to safeguard our security while expanding regional peace.”
