Netanyahu to Meet Trump, Attend Graham Funeral
Netanyahu is traveling to Washington to meet President Trump next week and attend Senator Lindsey Graham’s funeral, with their talks scheduled for Tuesday. The discussions occur as the U.S.-Israel-Iran confrontation intensifies, with strikes on Iran and broader war concerns potentially pulling Israel deeper into hostilities. Zelensky is also slated to meet Trump amid talks of renewed peace efforts and a proposed air ceasefire to pressure Russia over Ukraine. The funeral visit underscores the close alignment with Graham, a hawk who pushed hard on Iran policy, as U.S. and Israeli leaders weigh future steps. Trump has signaled a willingness to escalate against Iran and coordinate with Israel, while critics warn of a wider regional war if actions escalate. Israel has been preparing for possible escalation, with officials signaling readiness and a cautious approach to any sudden military decisions.
