"Maybe after I do this I'll go to Israel and run for prime minister. I had a poll this morning, I'm 99%," Trump told reporters. He also said that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu "is not treated right" in his country. On Sunday, Axios reported, citing sources, that Trump and Netanyahu had held a phone call, during which the two leaders discussed situation around Iran. On February 28, the United States and Israel launched strikes on targets in Iran, causing damage and civilian casualties. Iran responded by striking Israeli territory and US military facilities in the Middle East. On April 7, Washington and Tehran announced a two-week ceasefire. Subsequent talks in Islamabad ended inconclusively, and US President Donald Trump extended the cessation of hostilities to give Iran time to come up with a "unified proposal."
