Prime Minister Netanyahu said Monday at 21:11 Jerusalem that Israel 'will build new alliances with countries in the region and beyond' and 'will ensure our arms independence.' The remark, carried by Israeli media, arrives as Israel's security dialogue with the US continues and amid broader regional realignments following the recent Iran round. The statement's wording — particularly the emphasis on 'arms independence' — suggests a strategic focus on reducing reliance on foreign weapons supply chains. The Zioneer has previously reported on Netanyahu's discussions with President Trump regarding defense and self-defense rights. The new statement does not reference a specific deal or ally but signals an ongoing policy direction.
