Donald Trump is set to take office as the 47th US President on January 20, with a ceremony expected to be attended by several international leaders, including the President of Argentina, former President of Brazil, and Italian Prime Minister. However, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has announced he will not attend the inauguration due to a recent video shared by Trump, which included crude language directed at Netanyahu. The video featured economist Jeffrey Sachs accusing Netanyahu of manipulating US foreign policy and orchestrating an “endless war” in Gaza and the Middle East. Trump has vowed to help bring back Israeli hostages held captive by Hamas in Gaza, but his relationship with Netanyahu has been described as turbulent and transactional.
