According to The New Republic, the meeting eventually follows a recent ceasefire in Gaza which Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu strategically delayed until just before the inauguration of US President Donald Trump. At the same time, Donald Trump has already demonstrated support for Israel by lifting restrictions on military aid which included approving the transfer of 2,000 pound bombs previously halted by the former US President Joe Biden administration.
The visit of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu comes amidst severe multiple legal challenges which includes several allegations of bribery and breach of trust in the country Israel, asserted The New Republic. However, during such ongoing times, both US President Donald Trump and Secretary of State Marco Rubio have consistently defended the actions of Israel and condemned the warrant of ICC.
