Donald Trump and Benjamin Netanyahu had a news conference in the White House yesterday.
Trump began by saying he had “fantastic talks” with Netanyahu.
He says the alliance between the US and Israel will soon be “stronger than ever”.
“We had a great relationship,” says Trump.
“We had great victories together four years ago, not so many victories over the past four years.
“However, in my first term, Prime Minister [Netanyahu] and I forged a tremendously successful partnership that brought peace and stability to the Middle East like it hadn’t seen in decades.”
More countries will sign up to Abraham Accords, says Trump
Donald Trump says he believes more countries will sign up to the Abraham Accords he signed during his first term as president.
The Accords are bilateral agreements on Arab-Israeli normalisations signed between Israel and the United Arab Emirates, and between Israel and Bahrain, in 2020.
“I really believe that many countries will soon be joining this amazing peace and economic development transaction,” says Trump.
“It really is a big economic development transaction. I think we’re going to have a lot of people signing up very quickly.
“Unfortunately, for four years, nobody signed up. Nobody did anything for four years.”
