US, Israel discuss possible Trump-Netanyahu meeting in Washington

The White House and the Israeli Prime Minister's Office are discussing a potential meeting between US President Donald Trump and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu next week, Axios reported on Wednesday. The proposed Oval Office session would follow Netanyahu's reported failure to secure an appointment last week.

Funeral Visit and Meeting Uncertainty

Netanyahu is scheduled to travel to Washington on Tuesday to attend funeral services for Senator Lindsey Graham, who died last week. However, a meeting between the two leaders has not yet been arranged, a White House official and Israeli source told Axios. Netanyahu has visited the White House six times since Trump returned to office, more than any other world leader.

No Confirmation

Israeli officials in Jerusalem and Washington declined to comment on the potential schedule. Anadolu contacted the White House for confirmation but received no response. The reported meeting would come amid ongoing US-Israeli coordination on regional security issues.
