Donald Trump has announced on Thursday he has brokered a landmark phone call between the leaders of Israel and Lebanon — which he says will be the first direct contact between the two nations’ heads of government in 34 years.
The US President revealed the breakthrough on Truth Social, writing: “Trying to get a little breathing room between Israel and Lebanon. It has been a long time since the two leaders have spoken, like 34 years. It will happen tomorrow. Nice!”
The development comes as Trump’s Iran war continues to reshape the Middle East, with the President juggling the Hormuz blockade and renewed diplomatic efforts across the region simultaneously.
