Trump Urges Israel to Drop Netanyahu corruption Trial, Slams Charges as Political

Report by “Safarti Tarjuman” International News Desk

U.S. President Donald Trump has publicly called on Israel to halt the ongoing corruption trial of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, denouncing the proceedings as a “politically motivated witch hunt” and demanding either its cancellation or a presidential pardon for the embattled Israeli leader.

In a passionate post on his Truth Social platform, Trump expressed disbelief that Israel would continue prosecuting Netanyahu—whom he described as a “Great War Time Prime Minister”—amid a national crisis. “This ridiculous Witch Hunt must end,” Trump wrote, adding, “Bibi Netanyahu’s trial should be CANCELLED, IMMEDIATELY, or a Pardon given to a Great Hero.”

He further declared, “It was the United States of America that saved Israel, and now it is going to be the United States of America that saves Bibi Netanyahu. THIS TRAVESTY OF ‘JUSTICE’ CAN NOT BE ALLOWED!”

In a lengthy post on Truth Social, Trump expressed outrage over Netanyahu’s legal proceedings, claiming that Israel is persecuting its “Great War Time Prime Minister” at a time of national crisis. Referring to Netanyahu as a “great hero,” Trump wrote, “Bibi Netanyahu’s trial should be CANCELLED, IMMEDIATELY, or a Pardon given to a Great Hero who has done so much for the State.”

Trump added, “It was the United States of America that saved Israel, and now it is going to be the United States of America that saves Bibi Netanyahu.”

Prime Minister Netanyahu has been facing corruption charges since 2019 in three separate cases involving alleged bribery, fraud, and breach of trust. He has denied all wrongdoing and labeled the charges as politically motivated. The trial, which resumed earlier this year, includes testimony from former close aides and business associates.

Trump’s remarks mark a rare instance of an American leader directly intervening in the internal judicial affairs of a key U.S. ally.
