President Donald Trump welcomed Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for a high-level summit focused on security, strategy, and solidarity. Speaking from the Oval Office, Trump emphasized the unbreakable bond between the United States and Israel, declaring, “We are friends of Israel, it’s an honor.”
Standing beside Netanyahu, Trump praised the Israeli leader as “a very, very special person,” highlighting their long-standing relationship and mutual understanding during one of the most critical periods in modern Middle Eastern history.
Trump revealed that the leaders discussed multiple key issues, with Iran topping the agenda. “We had great discussions today, especially on the obvious topic of Iran,” Trump said, referencing the ongoing threat posed by the Islamic Republic’s nuclear ambitions and regional terror network.
Yet the conversation extended beyond military threats. Trump noted that they also tackled trade, with Israel continuing to play a significant role in technological, defense, and economic cooperation with the U.S.
Trump: “I’m the Best President Israel Has Ever Even Thought of Seeing”
With characteristic boldness, Trump reaffirmed his deep commitment to the Jewish state. “I would say I’m by far the best president Israel has ever even thought of seeing,” he stated. That declaration echoes his administration’s historic moves, including recognizing Jerusalem as Israel’s capital, moving the U.S. Embassy, recognizing Israeli sovereignty over the Golan Heights, and now—restoring full strategic alignment amid the war on Iran’s terror proxies.
Prime Minister Netanyahu thanked Trump for his unwavering support and emphasized the shared values that unite the two democracies. “Thank you, Mr. President. Thank you, Donald,” he said, visibly appreciative of the reception and the renewed cooperation between the two allies.
As the meeting wrapped, Trump reiterated that both countries were working toward “good solutions and conclusions,” and that their alliance remains ironclad.
This Oval Office meeting sent a clear message: the United States stands with Israel not only in word, but in action. As Iran escalates its threats and proxies continue their aggression, the Trump-Netanyahu partnership stands firm—ready to defend freedom, security, and the right of Israel to exist in peace.
In Trump’s words: “It’s not an easy region, they face tough challenges, but we’re helping them, and likewise, they’ve been helping us a great deal.”
