Former U.S. President Donald Trump has publicly endorsed Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu ahead of the upcoming Israeli elections, in a letter addressed to the Israeli people. Trump praised Netanyahu's leadership, particularly his stance against Iran and his ability to withstand domestic and international pressure. He described Netanyahu as a "great fighter" and a "greater partner" in the struggle against the Islamic Republic of Iran.
In the letter, Trump warned that if Iran does not change its behavior, the United States will be forced to take further action. He emphasized that the continuation of Netanyahu's premiership is crucial for American interests in the Middle East, stating that if Israel chooses a leader other than Netanyahu, the U.S. would have to handle the Iranian threat itself, which he expressed reluctance to do.
Trump also highlighted Netanyahu's resilience, noting his strength and wisdom in the face of significant opposition, including from within Israel. He recalled witnessing Netanyahu operate during extremely difficult periods, observing that he did not collapse under pressure but rather grew stronger.
