The world is watching as President Donald Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu meet today at the White House for high-stakes talks centered on the President's 21-point plan to end the Gaza war. The White House has suggested a major announcement could follow the meeting, with Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt stating a deal is "very close." The critical moment of this diplomatic push will be the joint press conference, scheduled for 8:15 PM Eastern Time (US) in the State Dining Room.
Netanyahu faces an immense choice: accept the framework for ending the war and the release of hostages, or risk a public rift with his most important international ally. White House sources indicate that if the deal is not accepted, Netanyahu will be blamed for prolonging the war and the humanitarian crisis. Viewers can tune in live to major news networks and their digital platforms to follow the press conference.
