Iran war: Netanyahu hails closed-door meeting with Trump

Deutsche Welle · back to the audit

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and US President Donald Trump and their teams praised cooperation between their two administrations after a closed-door meeting in the Oval Office on Tuesday. The sit down, the first since the start of the US-Israeli war on Iran, looked likely to go either way before Netanyahu arrived for Senator Lindsey Graham's funeral, with Trump boisterously complaining about the Israeli leader in public, most notably on Fox News. Tuesday's talks, which lasted for 90 minutes, were described as 'positive and productive' by the White House. In a social media video posted after the meeting, Netanyahu called it 'one of the best conversations I've ever had with the president of the United States,' adding that it touched on 'our common goal: ensuring that Iran does not obtain nuclear weapons.'
