In a letter to the Israeli President, US President Donald Trump has called for the legal pardon of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who is facing charges of bribery, fraud, and breach of trust. The letter, addressed to President Isaac Herzog, is an attempt by Trump to intervene in the legal proceedings against Netanyahu, who has been a close ally of the former US president. This move by Trump is seen as a controversial attempt to influence the internal affairs of another country, as the decision to pardon Netanyahu ultimately lies with the Israeli justice system. The letter has raised concerns about the potential abuse of presidential powers and the potential impact on the rule of law in Israel.
