Donald Trump claims that Israel would not exist without his interventions, including actions against Iran and military support given to Tel Aviv.

President Donald Trump reiterated in an interview on WABC Radio that the state of Israel 'would not exist' without the actions of his administration, highlighting military interventions against Iran and the extensive military support provided to Tel Aviv. Trump emphasized the United States' commitment in the Middle East, mentioning the deployment of a significant military fleet in the Persian Gulf, which he described as an 'army' larger than the forces used in other operations. Although he expressed hope that the forces would not be used, he claimed considerable influence over Israel's security.

In the same interview, Trump also discussed domestic policy, supporting the current mayor of New York, Zohran Mamdani, and praising his qualities, despite criticisms of some policies he considers ineffective. His statements come in a tense international context, where a ceasefire between Israel and Iran has been mediated with the help of the White House and Qatar, and Trump described this agreement as a 'victory for everyone,' despite previous escalations.
