Trump on if he'll endorse candidate in Israel: 'Maybe I'll do something'
<p>US President Donald Trump responded to the question of whether he would recommend a candidate in the Israeli elections: "Maybe we'll do something."</p>
On Tuesday, US President Donald Trump left open the possibility of endorsing a candidate in Israel's upcoming elections, but did not commit to any specific candidate, including Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. When asked directly about his intentions, Trump responded, "Well, we may be. I may be doing something." The president's remarks came two weeks before Israel's October 27 election, amid his close relationship with Netanyahu.
Trump reiterated his potential endorsement without naming any other Israeli political figures he might support. The president also addressed the Russia-Ukraine war, confirming that the United States was still providing intelligence assistance to Kyiv, aiming for a resolution to the conflict. Trump also defended his administration's decision to facilitate additional Russian diesel supplies, arguing it was intended to address global energy shortages rather than benefit the United States directly.
