Trump's Fractured Alliances Hinder Foreign Policy as Relations with Putin and Netanyahu Strain

President Donald Trump's strained relationships with Russian President Vladimir Putin and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu are hindering his efforts to achieve his foreign policy goals, according to sources close to the president. Trump expressed disappointment in his recent phone calls with both leaders, citing a lack of progress on key issues such as Ukraine, Iran, and Middle East peace. The tensions between Trump and Putin have been escalating since 2019, while his relationship with Netanyahu has deteriorated due to disagreements over the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. These strained relationships are complicating Trump's ability to push through his agenda in international diplomacy.
