Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is set to meet with President Trump, marking the latter's first international engagement since assuming office for a second term. Netanyahu plans to discuss significant issues including the defeat of Hamas, counteractions against Iran, and strengthening ties with Arab states. This visit indicates Netanyahu's desire to mend relations with the US after previous tensions under the Biden administration. Moreover, Netanyahu faces an ICC arrest warrant, but given that neither the US nor Israel is part of the ICC, he proceeds without immediate concern of arrest during his visit.
Netanyahu stated he aims to work closely with President Trump to enhance Israeli-American relations, seek peace through strength, and counter threats from Hamas and Iran.
As the first foreign leader to meet Trump post-election, Netanyahu views the summit as crucial for reaffirming the bond between the US and Israel.
