Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu used his first face-to-face meeting with US President Donald Trump since the Iran war to discussed a wide range of regional and security issues, including increasing
pressure on Iran through military and non-military means, Israel’s position in Syria, the proposed US-Saudi nuclear deal and future US military aid to Israel, according to an Axios report citing a senior Israeli official.
The 90-minute meeting at the White House came after weeks of disagreements and tensions between Trump and Netanyahu over the war in Iran.
While the White House described the talks as “positive and productive”, Netanyahu later called them “one of the best conversations I’ve ever had” with Trump, saying both leaders remained committed to preventing Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons.
