Netanyahu Praises ‘Excellent’ Trump Meeting as Iran Launches Surprise Attack on U.S. Forces

JERUSALEM, Israel – President Donald Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu met on Tuesday for the first time since the war with Iran started. Despite reports of tension between the two leaders, they both described the meeting as positive. And after several days of a pause in fighting, Iran suddenly launched an attack on U.S. forces in the region. In Washington, the White House described Tuesday’s meeting between Trump and Netanyahu as “positive and productive.” The meeting comes at a pivotal moment as the U.S. and Israel coordinate their response to Iran and shape what comes next in the Middle East. Netanyahu called the meeting one of their best ever, emphasizing what he described as a full partnership between the two leaders. “I just finished an excellent meeting with President Trump," the prime minister declared. "When I say excellent, I don't mean it in a superficial way. A conversation with full partnership, with mutual support, with an understanding of the common goal of ensuring that Iran does not have nuclear weapons, and other goals as well.” Netanyahu’s remarks also appeared aimed at pushing back against weeks of speculation about tensions between the two leaders.
