Netanyahu Arrives in Washington Ahead of White House Meeting with Trump

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu landed Tuesday evening at Joint Base Andrews in Maryland ahead of a scheduled White House meeting with U.S. President Donald Trump.

Netanyahu arrived at approximately 6 p.m. local time and is set to meet with Trump on Wednesday. The meeting comes amid ongoing regional tensions and heightened focus on Iran’s nuclear and missile programs.

In a separate interview on Fox Business Network’s “Kudlow,” Trump said he believes Iran wants to reach an agreement with the United States regarding its nuclear and ballistic missile development.

“I think they want to make a deal,” Trump said, adding that Iran would be “foolish” not to do so.

Details of the Netanyahu–Trump meeting agenda have not been publicly released, but discussions are expected to include Iran, regional security concerns, and broader U.S.–Israel cooperation.

The visit marks another high-profile diplomatic engagement as Israel continues to navigate security challenges in the region and fallout from the October 7 attack.
