Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is set to meet with US President Donald Trump on Tuesday at 6 p.m. ET, as confirmed by an Israeli official. Netanyahu arrived in Washington, DC, on Sunday in preparation for the meeting with the US president. This meeting marks Netanyahu as the first world leader to have a formal meeting with Trump since his inauguration last month.
Upon his arrival, Netanyahu was welcomed at Blair House, the official guest house of the White House. The meeting between the two leaders is highly anticipated and is expected to cover a range of topics, including bilateral relations, regional security issues, and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
Both Netanyahu and Trump have expressed strong support for each other in the past, and this meeting is seen as an opportunity to strengthen the ties between Israel and the United States. The meeting comes at a crucial time, with various challenges facing the Middle East region.
Netanyahu's visit to Washington, DC, is also significant in light of recent developments in the region, including the US decision to recognize Jerusalem as the capital of Israel. The meeting between Netanyahu and Trump is likely to address this issue, among others.
Overall, the meeting between Netanyahu and Trump holds great importance for both countries and the broader Middle East region. It will be closely watched by observers around the world for any potential outcomes or agreements reached between the two leaders.
