Trump says he and Netanyahu don't fully agree on West Bank

Trump and Netanyahu differ on West Bank settlements amid international pressure; about 500,000 Israeli settlers live there, with over 1,000 Palestinians killed recently, UN says.

  • On Dec 29, President Donald Trump said he and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu did not fully agree on the West Bank during a Mar-a-Lago briefing but declined to detail the disagreement.
  • The United Nations' highest court declared Israel's occupation and settlements illegal, while Israel disputes these views citing biblical ties and security concerns.
  • Around half a million Israeli settlers live in the West Bank, where over a thousand Palestinians and 57 Israelis were killed between October 2023 and October 2025.
  • Following the briefing, officials noted the West Bank, home to 2.7 million Palestinians, remains central to future Palestinian state plans, and Donald Trump said Benjamin Netanyahu `will do the right thing`.
  • Trump's public vagueness followed a briefing on settler violence risks amid a 2024 United Nations' highest court ruling and heavy West Bank casualties shaping diplomatic fallout.
