Trump confirms he made harsh remarks about Netanyahu

US President Donald Trump has confirmed that he made sharp remarks about Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu during a conversation, Ynet reports.

In an interview with Pod Force One, he acknowledged that in one of the discussions, he referred to Netanyahu as a “fucking crazy guy”.

“I wouldn’t say angry; I was a little perturbed at his constantly fighting with Lebanon,” he added.

However, Trump stressed that he likes Bibi very much, saying they “have done well together.”

Trump also said he expects to meet Iran’s Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei, while adding: “If you believe the stories is, you know, missing a lot of different parts.”

Earlier, Trump had reportedly sharply criticised Netanyahu during a phone call amid the escalation of tensions in Lebanon.
