US President Donald Trump confirmed that he called Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu “f****ing crazy” during a call on Monday in an interview on the New York Post’s “Pod Force One” with Miranda Devine, released on Wednesday.
Reports of Trump’s language were first released on Monday, with Israeli officials later disputing the account.
In his interview, Trump clarified that he wasn’t angry but that he “was a little perturbed at his constantly fighting with Lebanon.”
“I like Bibi a lot,” Trump added.
Trump discussed ongoing negotiations with Iran, saying that the Iranians told him Mojtaba Khamenei was making the decisions, although Trump himself could not confirm Khamenei’s status as he “had not had the pleasure of meeting him.”
“I’d like to meet him, we probably will met depending on how it all works out,” he added.
This is a developing story.
