BBC World Service - Newshour, Netanyahu and Trump Discuss Second Phase of Gaza Ceasefire
Trump and Netanyahu resolved three key issues including Gaza reconstruction and Hamas disarmament while discussing Iran’s missile threats and Turkey’s regional role.
- President Donald Trump welcomed Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at Mar-a-Lago on Monday, following a brief pre-meeting that resolved about three difficulties before lunch.
- To repair reported strains, the leaders focused on smoothing relations and coordinating policy to balance Washington's push for Gaza rehabilitation with Israel's insistence on Hamas disarmament.
- Disagreements over Syria and Ankara's regional role persisted as many Israelis opposed Turkey's Gaza force participation and Ankara's ambitions, fueling tensions over Syria and Gaza.
- The leaders left the meeting with some tensions eased and a wide-ranging agenda as President Donald Trump urged Gaza's rebuilding to start quickly but only after Hamas is disarmed.
- Reports that Iran is developing chemical- and biological-tipped missiles added urgency, with Israel increasingly concerned about Iran's growing ballistic arsenal, during talks involving President Donald Trump.
