The office of US Vice President JD Vance has denied reports that it blocked a meeting between Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and President Donald Trump, calling the claims '100% fake news,' according to the Times of Israel.
The office of US Vice President JD Vance categorically denied reports that it worked to prevent a meeting between Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and President Donald Trump, calling the allegations '100% fake news,' according to the Times of Israel.
The denial comes amid a series of conflicting reports about the potential meeting, which The Zioneer has covered in recent weeks. Earlier this month, the White House expressed surprise at reports that a meeting had been scheduled, and Israeli officials expressed doubt that it would take place. The Prime Minister's Office dismissed a New York Times report on the matter as a 'complete fabrication of reality.'
It remains unclear whether a meeting between the two leaders is actually in the works. The Vance office's denial does not confirm or deny the existence of plans for a meeting; it specifically denies the claim that the vice president's office blocked one.
