‘Israel’ Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will visit the United States next week for a meeting with US President Donald Trump at the White House, Trump confirmed during his speech at the White House Correspondents’ Association Dinner.
Netanyahu’s office said the meeting is scheduled for Tuesday and comes at Trump’s invitation.
The visit will mark Netanyahu’s seventh trip to the US to meet Trump and comes amid heightened tensions with Iran following two weeks of US strikes and threats of further action over attacks on vessels in the Strait of Hormuz.
Netanyahu has previously expressed opposition to Iran’s nuclear negotiations and has supported renewed military action against Tehran.
During his visit, Netanyahu is also expected to attend the funeral of former US Senator Lindsey Graham, whom he described as one of ‘Israel’s’ strongest supporters.
