In a statement as spectacular as it was symbolic, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu reacted enthusiastically to the election of Donald Trump, calling his return to politics a “greatest comeback in history”. This strong support underscores the close diplomatic alliance that marked Trump’s previous term, during which relations between Israel and the United States reached an unprecedented level of strategic and ideological collaboration.
Netanyahu, who has often hailed Trump as a key ally for Israel’s security and interests, sees the return as an opportunity to strengthen a shared vision of regional stability. During his presidency, Trump notably recognized Jerusalem as the capital of Israel and initiated the Abraham Accords, normalizing diplomatic relations between Israel and several Arab countries. For Netanyahu, the return of Trump could revive this dynamic and relaunch regional initiatives suspended under the Biden presidency.

Trump’s victory nevertheless arouses contrasting reactions internationally. While several leaders in the region share Netanyahu’s enthusiasm, others, particularly in Europe, remain cautious about the implications of this change. American diplomacy risks adopting a more assertive tone in the Middle East, in line with the Trump doctrine, often perceived as unwavering support for the Jewish state.
