Israel-Iran War: US President Demands Herzog to Pardon Netanyahu Immediately

U.S. President Donald Trump has publicly pressured Israeli President Isaac Herzog to immediately pardon Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, arguing that Netanyahu needs to be fully focused on Israel’s conflict with Iran rather than his ongoing corruption trial. Trump labeled Herzog “a disgrace,” claiming the Israeli president previously promised a pardon multiple times - a claim Herzog’s office denies. Herzog responded that Israel is a sovereign democracy governed by the rule of law, and any pardon request is being reviewed through formal legal procedures.
