Axios reports, citing two officials in the United States and Israel, that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu asked U.S. President Donald Trump for further support during a phone call on Monday, as Netanyahu seeks a pardon from the Israeli president.
The office of Israeli President Isaac Herzog confirms that Netanyahu submitted an official request for a presidential pardon earlier this week.
Netanyahu faces a long-running corruption trial. He denies all charges and maintains his innocence.
On Monday, Netanyahu received an invitation from U.S. President Donald Trump to visit the White House “in the near future” following their phone call.
A statement from Netanyahu’s office says he “spoke a short while ago with U.S. President Donald Trump,” noting that Trump invited him “to meet at the White House in the near future.”
