Trump says Netanyahu „has to be more responsible“ with Lebanon, recent Israeli attack there was „too much“
Mr. Trump said Tuesday that Netanyahu „has to be more responsible with respect to Lebanon.“
„[I] didn‘t like where two hours before we‘re signing the agreement that there was an attack in Lebanon, in Beirut,“ Mr. Trump said Tuesday. He also described the attack as „vicious,“ saying it was „too much.“
But the president added he and Netanyahu have a „great relationship,“ and „we‘re talking about some end details.“
This morningâs attack on Beirut should not have happened, particularly on a special day when we are so close to a Peace Deal with Iran.
Israel has the right to defend itself against threats, but the attack it was responding to was very small and meaningless, nobody was hurt, injured, or killed, and should not disrupt this important process. We are very close to a Deal that will bring peace to the region, including to Lebanon, and all sides should stand down. There should be no more attacks by Israel anywhere in Lebanon, but there should also be no more attacks by any other party, including Hezbollah, against Israel. This could be the beginning of a long and beautiful peace â Letâs not blow it! Thank you for your attention to this matter. President DONALD J. TRUMP
