The meeting will take place on Monday, a White House official said on condition of anonymity.
Netanyahu will meet Trump to “discuss tariffs, efforts to bring back Israeli hostages (from Gaza), Israel-Turkey relations, the Iranian threat, and the fight against the International Criminal Court,“ which has accused the Israeli leader of war crimes, his Jerusalem office said in a statement Saturday.
Israel had attempted to duck the tariffs imposed on nearly every country by moving preemptively Tuesday -- a day before Trump’s big global tariff announcement -- to drop all remaining duties on the one percent of American goods still affected by them.
Trump had said Thursday that he expected a visit soon from Netanyahu -- “maybe even next week” -- though the Axios website said Israeli officials and even some in the Trump administration were caught by surprise.
Trump meanwhile has pressed Iran, so far amid few signs of progress, for a new deal on its nuclear program. There has been widespread speculation that Israel, possibly with US help, might launch a military strike on Iranian facilities if no agreement is reached.
Trump and Netanyahu had spoken by phone on Thursday about Hungary’s decision to withdraw from the International Criminal Court (ICC), and the possibility of the Washington visit apparently arose at that time.
