Kabul 24: Trump’s remarks come amid rising tensions in the region, particularly related to Iran and Hezbollah. He criticized President Joe Biden for not speaking with Netanyahu in nearly two months, calling it “pathetic.”

In contrast, President Biden had a call with Netanyahu last week, marking their first conversation since August. This dialogue coincided with escalating military operations by Israel against Iranian-backed groups amid ongoing conflicts in Gaza and Lebanon.
