Trump said that Netanyahu will not be arrested in the U.S.
U.S. President Donald Trump stated that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu would not be arrested on U.S. soil “under any circumstances.”
Trump made this statement in response to a remark by New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani, who had previously said he would seek the Israeli prime minister’s arrest if he came to New York to attend the UN General Assembly in September.
In his statement, Trump also noted that Netanyahu is involved in countering Iran, and that, in his view, responsibility for the violence lies with the Iranian authorities, not the Israeli prime minister.
