Netanyahu to Meet Trump in US: Gaza War Truce and Regional Peace on Agenda

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is reportedly preparing for a visit to the United States to meet with US President Donald Trump, with discussions expected to focus on efforts to end the ongoing conflict in Gaza. According to Al Arabiya's senior correspondent in Palestine, Ziad Halabi, Tel Aviv is seeking to achieve a comprehensive agreement during a proposed 60-day ceasefire. Halabi stated that while there is no new development regarding a partial deal, Israel is keen on reaching a full agreement to end the war within the 60-day ceasefire period. This push for a comprehensive resolution is seen as a priority, especially with the US President appearing eager to conclude the conflict. The discussions between Netanyahu and Trump are also anticipated to cover broader regional normalization efforts, including the expansion of the Abraham Accords. This suggests a larger strategic agenda beyond the immediate Gaza conflict. The Israeli Defense Minister's statements indicate that Israel is prepared to show flexibility regarding ending the war, emphasizing the importance of a complete deal.
