Following the conclusion of Operation “Am K’Lavi” and the significant blows dealt to Iran’s military and nuclear infrastructure, Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu is considering a diplomatic visit to the United States, which would include a meeting with U.S. President Donald Trump at the White House.
According to senior diplomatic officials, formal discussions between Yerushalayim and Washington have yet to begin, but the intention is to schedule the visit as soon as possible—potentially within the next few weeks. One official noted, “The goal is to create a symbolic and international moment of victory over Iran—both on the diplomatic stage and in the court of global public opinion.”
The planned trip is being described behind the scenes as a “victory celebration,” although the exact timing remains uncertain, and it is still unclear whether the visit will proceed without delays.
Within Israel’s political sphere, the move is seen as an effort to reinforce the legitimacy of the recent military campaign, especially amid increasing debate over the impending ceasefire. For Netanyahu, the meeting—should it materialize—would serve to project strength and mark a personal achievement in reaffirming ties with one of Israel’s most important allies.
