ALLEGATIONS OF "TRUMP-NETANYAHU CONFLICT" HAVE FLARED UP

On the other hand, the statement from the Israeli army has brought back to the agenda the allegations that there are differences of opinion between US President Donald Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu regarding the course of the war. During a meeting where he hosted Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi at the White House, Trump commented on Israel's recent attacks on Iran, stating that he had told Netanyahu to avoid targeting the oil and natural gas infrastructure belonging to the Tehran administration. Touching on the general dynamics of his relationship with Netanyahu, Trump said, "We get along great and work in coordination, but sometimes he can make independent decisions. If I don't like something he does, we don't continue with that action."
