President Donald Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu held a joint press conference on Wednesday at the White House. Both leaders stressed their commitment to further strengthen the ties between the United States and Israel. President Trump reiterated that he would like Netanyahu to "hold back on settlements for a little bit." When asked about his support for a two state solution, Donald Trump explained that a "two state looked like it will be the easier of the two," but he will support any deal that satisfies both Israel and the Palestinians. Both leaders expressed optimism in what they can achieve in their upcoming meetings that will also discuss the Iran deal, the location of the U.S. embassy, and combating the threat of ISIS.
