Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has finally secured a one-on-one meeting with former US President Donald Trump after months of pushing for it. However, the meeting is unlikely to repair the increasingly strained relations between the two leaders and their countries. The article, published by Die Welt on July 28, 2026, highlights the risks Netanyahu faces in this diplomatic encounter, suggesting that the political and strategic costs could be significant. The strained ties stem from disagreements over Iran policy, settlement expansion, and other regional issues. The meeting is seen as a high-stakes gamble for Netanyahu, who may have to make concessions or face further isolation from the US administration.
