Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu held a conversation with U.S. President Donald Trump on Monday, following Trump's call on social media for Israel to continue dialogue with Syria.
The two leaders discussed several critical issues, including the disarmament of Palestinian militant group Hamas and the demilitarization of the Gaza Strip, according to Netanyahu's office.
The conversation also touched on Israel's ongoing efforts to establish diplomatic ties with countries that do not formally recognize the Jewish state. Netanyahu's office highlighted the importance of these discussions as part of Israel's broader regional strategy, which includes building new alliances in the Middle East despite longstanding opposition from some neighboring states.
President Trump, who has consistently supported Israel's security efforts, extended an invitation to Netanyahu for a meeting at the White House in the "near future." However, the prime minister’s office did not specify a date for the proposed visit.
The dialogue comes at a time of heightened tensions in the Middle East, particularly around the Gaza Strip, as Israel continues to face security threats from Hamas and other militant groups. Both Netanyahu and Trump have previously emphasized the need for stronger regional cooperation and security measures to ensure peace and stability in the area.
While Trump’s social media comments on Syria have drawn attention, his administration has largely focused on supporting Israel's security and countering Iranian influence in the region. Netanyahu's talks with the U.S. president are seen as part of a broader strategy to align Israel with key global powers while navigating complex relationships with its neighbors.
The proposed meeting at the White House marks another significant moment in the growing diplomatic relationship between the U.S. and Israel, especially as both countries address pressing security concerns and work toward broader regional cooperation.
