Exclusive: Trump says Netanyahu "knows who the boss is" ahead of possible WH visit

President Donald Trump revealed to Axios that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu requested a potential White House meeting, which could occur as early as next week following Trump's return from the NATO summit. Trump remarked that Netanyahu 'knows who the boss is,' indicating a perceived hierarchy in their relationship. This would mark the first meeting between the two leaders since their February Situation Room discussion regarding a joint war plan against Iran. However, an Israeli official suggested the meeting might be delayed due to Trump's upcoming trip to Turkey for the NATO summit. Netanyahu's office stated that the Israeli leader contacted Trump to express appreciation for the U.S.'s role in global freedom and to discuss plans for a future meeting. Meanwhile, some of Trump's advisors have expressed growing skepticism toward Netanyahu, particularly after disagreements over Israel's actions in Lebanon and differing views on foreign policy. These tensions highlight a broader divide within the Republican Party concerning Israel and the ongoing regional conflicts.
