Trump appealed to the President of Israel to pardon Netanyahu

US President Donald Trump sent an official letter to Israeli President Isaac Herzog requesting that he consider granting a pardon to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Israeli media reported that Trump’s initiative attracted wide public attention and became one of the most discussed topics in the country’s political circles.
In the letter, Donald Trump emphasized that Netanyahu is a strong leader who has made a significant contribution to Israel’s security and to strengthening US-Israel relations. He noted that the political pressure and ongoing legal proceedings against the prime minister undermine regional stability and hinder joint efforts to ensure peace.
Israeli President Isaac Herzog confirmed receipt of the appeal and stated that the pardon procedure is regulated by law and requires a personal petition from the accused. He stressed that all such cases are considered strictly according to established procedure and cannot depend on external statements or initiatives.
Trump’s initiative provoked mixed reactions in Israel. Opposition representatives called the appeal an attempt to interfere in the country’s internal affairs, while Netanyahu’s supporters viewed it as an act of support and recognition of the prime minister’s achievements.
According to Israeli analysts, the American leader’s appeal can be seen as an expression of personal friendship and political solidarity between the two leaders. Trump has repeatedly expressed respect for Netanyahu and supported his efforts to strengthen Israel’s defense and international standing.
The court proceedings against Benjamin Netanyahu have been ongoing since 2020. He is accused of corruption, fraud, and breach of trust, but the prime minister categorically denies all charges, calling them politically motivated.
Political observers note that Trump’s actions are aimed at demonstrating allied support for Israel and his personal commitment to the principles of political partnership. The final decision on a possible pardon remains with the President of Israel and depends on Netanyahu’s own position.
