Donald Trump Says 'Need To Keep Netanyahu Sane' Amid Israel-Lebanon Tensions In Middle East | WATCH

US President Donald Trump said he maintains a strong relationship with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu but suggested that he often acts as a restraining force on the Israeli leader, remarking that he has to keep Netanyahu "a little bit sane."

Speaking in a wide-ranging interview with Axios journalist Marc Caputo, Trump made the comment while discussing the aftermath of the US-backed military campaign against Iran and the future of Israel's regional military actions. The remark offered a rare glimpse into Trump's view of his influence over one of Washington's closest allies at a time when tensions remain high across the Middle East following the conflict with Iran.

Trump went further, asserting that he could prevent Israel from expanding military operations against neighbouring countries. Asked whether he would be able to stop Israel from attacking Lebanon, Trump responded: "Yeah, I will be." "He has a lot of respect for me, and they do as I say," Trump added, underscoring what he described as his leverage over the Israeli government.
