Former U.S. President Donald Trump suggested he might endorse a candidate in the upcoming Israeli elections, stating he "might... in the end, support some candidate." Trump made these remarks to reporters during a White House ceremony, alongside comments on the war in Ukraine and the U.S. ambassador to Greece. He also provided an update on Middle East affairs, claiming that negotiations with Iran are ongoing behind the scenes, but that he "holds all the cards." Trump asserted that his decision-making process regarding Iran is independent of Iranian considerations and is "on the verge of a final decision."
When questioned about the Israeli elections, Trump maintained a degree of diplomatic neutrality. However, he indicated that he could shift his stance if he felt there was an ideal candidate he wished to work with. This potential endorsement could influence the Israeli political landscape, though the specific timing and criteria for such a decision remain unclear.
