Iran Press/ America: US President, Joe Biden and Vice-President Kamala Harris held a meeting with the Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at the White House on Thursday afternoon. According to media sources, the White House strongly urged Netanyahu to agree to a ceasefire, with US officials believing that a potential deal was imminent.
Biden’s in-person meeting with Netanyahu followed the Israeli prime minister’s speech to Congress on Wednesday, which sparked protests including instances of antisemitism or pro-Hamas rhetoric in Washington, DC, although the White House has condemned such demonstrations.
US Vice President Kamala Harris pressured Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Thursday to help reach a Gaza ceasefire deal that would ease the suffering of Palestinian civilians.
Harris' remarks were sharp and serious in tone and raised the question of whether she would be more aggressive in dealing with Netanyahu if elected president on November 5. But analysts do not expect there would be a major shift in US policy toward Israel, Washington's closest ally in West Asia. 219
