Diplomatic tension: Trump attacks Netanyahu and warns against an Iranian nuclear weapon

In a series of statements released on June 15, 2026, United States President Donald Trump attacked Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, criticizing his character and emphasizing the importance of American aid to Israel.

According to Al-Mayadeen Channel, which is identified with the Axis of Resistance and presents a consistent line against US and Israeli policies in the region, Trump stated that "Netanyahu is a very difficult person" and added that the Prime Minister should "be grateful to us for what we have done."

In the same context, Trump presented a dramatic security assessment regarding Iran. According to the report in Al-Mayadeen, Trump claimed that "if Iran had nuclear weapons, Israel would not have been able to survive even two hours." This message echoes regional concerns regarding Tehran's nuclear capabilities, while using them to emphasize Israel's dependence on American guarantees.

The remarks were also reported by Beirut Time, which is close to the opposition or independent coverage in Lebanon, and which cited Trump's words about Netanyahu's character and the latter's need to show gratitude to the American administration, while providing a link for further expansion on the subject in a digital format.
