Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu fails to convince US President Donald Trump to exempt Israel from new tariffs policy, with Trump stating, 'Maybe not. Don't forget we help Israel a lot.' Netanyahu promised to remove all tariffs and trade barriers facing US exports to Israel, but without success.

Trump also announces direct talks with Iran to reach an agreement on Iran's nuclear program.
