Trump and Netanyahu Hold First Meeting Since Launching Joint Iran Military OperationsPreviousNext

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu met US President Donald Trump at the White House for their first face-to-face talks since jointly launching military operations against Iran in February. The nearly 90-minute meeting focused on Iran's nuclear program, regional security, and coordination between the allies. Despite reported tensions and differing views on Iran's threat level, both leaders described the discussions as positive and productive. Netanyahu also sought Trump's support ahead of Israel's upcoming election amid domestic pressures, while protests against Netanyahu occurred outside the White House.
