Gaza, Iran, Trade: What to Watch in Trump-Netanyahu Meeting
- Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu traveled to Washington on Sunday to meet U.S. President Donald Trump on Monday evening amid ongoing conflicts in Gaza and Iran.
- Netanyahu faces pressure from Trump to advance a ceasefire in Gaza while balancing hard-liners in his coalition who oppose ending the war and want to retain control over Gaza.
- The meeting follows joint Israeli-U.S. airstrikes against Iran's nuclear sites last month and occurs as mediated talks between Israel and Hamas continue in Qatar to negotiate a 60-day ceasefire and hostage release.

- The meeting could accelerate a Gaza truce involving a pause in fighting, aid to Gaza, and hostage returns, but Netanyahu risks coalition instability by acquiescing to U.S. demands amid continued Israeli military operations.
