Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu touched down in Washington on Monday to discuss U.S. diplomatic efforts in the Middle East, including Israel-Hamas cease-fire negotiations. The trip’s centerpiece will be an evening meeting with U.S. President Donald Trump at the White House.

Trump has expressed frustration in recent weeks with foreign leaders refusing to go along with his attempts to bring their respective conflicts to a close.

On Monday, Netanyahu told Trump that he will nominate him for the Nobel Peace Prize for his efforts in the Middle East. Write to Michael R. Gordon at [email protected] and Dov Lieber at [email protected]
