U.S. President Donald Trump announced his full support for Benjamin Netanyahu for Prime Minister of Israel. In a message directed to "the great people of Israel," Trump stated that if Netanyahu is not elected, he might choose not to act alone against Iran. This dramatic announcement comes just one week before Israeli elections.
The U.S. president's statement is seen as a significant intervention in Israeli domestic politics, particularly given its timing. Trump's explicit endorsement of Netanyahu, referred to by his nickname "Bibi," could influence voters. The implied threat regarding Iran suggests that a Netanyahu victory is linked to potential U.S. military action in the region.
