Questioned on his previous Palestinian relocation plan, Trump shot the question from the Israeli Prime Minister, who reiterated how the ally supports the “free choice” and how Israel is collaborating with the United States to find other countries where the displaced Palestinians can live.
During his speech, Trump announced that Hamas “He wants a ceasefire” in Gaza, but not only. The Head of the White House confirmed that the next round of nuclear interviews between the United States and Iran “It has been scheduled”.

The first round did not produce concrete results, but both sides confirmed the intention to continue the comparison. Netanyahu, before departure, expressed confidence in the contribution that dialogue with Trump could give to the negotiating process.
Trump, for his part, has expressed optimism about the possibility of a short -term agreementwhile recognizing the uncertainty of the context.

During the visit, Netanyahu also discussed with the special correspondent Steve Witkoff and with the secretary of state Marco Rubio. The Iranian dossier remains central: while Trump shows himself in favor of a new agreement with Tehran, Netanyahu maintains a more cautious position. In addition, the new US administration intensified the contacts with Damascus, after removing some previous penalties and designations, marking a difference in approach to the Israeli position, more prudent.
