Former ambassador Herzog warns Israel’s influence in Washington has diminished sharply under TrumpFormer Israeli ambassador to the United States Mike Herzog stated that Israel's influence on U.S. decision-making has significantly declined under President Donald Trump. Herzog noted that while Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu described his recent meeting with Trump as 'one of the best meetings ever,' the encounter lacked the personal rapport and substantive outcomes typical of high-level diplomacy. Herzog suggested that the meeting, which occurred after Trump made harsh comments about Netanyahu, was more symbolic than impactful, with key decisions likely avoided due to the presence of multiple attendees. He emphasized that while direct communication between leaders remains valuable, especially during critical moments like potential escalation with Iran, the meeting did not achieve the breakthroughs Netanyahu portrayed.

It includes his critique of the meeting's lack of substance and Netanyahu's political motivations, while also acknowledging the potential importance of direct dialogue. No explicit bias toward one side is evident
