Playbook: “Trump is set to meet — for the seventh time — with Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu in the White House at 11 a.m. But this visit in particular comes not just as the Gaza peace plan moves into its second phase, but also as the world awaits what’s next in Iran…”
“Trump has been hearing a lot from Arab allies in recent weeks as he mulls another strike. Their message has focused on the risks of sparking a prolonged war with severe consequences for the region and perhaps global oil markets…”
“Netanyahu is likely to try to convince Trump that Iran’s nuclear program is still a threat, even after U.S. strikes last summer. And he’ll make it clear that Israel opposes any possible deal with Iran that allows the regime to keep its ballistic missiles, something Tehran will not discuss relinquishing.”
