Trump has hosted the Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in the first visit of a foreign leader to the White House during Trump's second term.  

The visit comes despite an arrest warrant issued by the International Criminal Court for Netanyahu. 

The arrest warrant was issued as the court found that the Prime Minister had criminal responsibility for the war crime of starvation as a method of warfare; and the crimes against humanity of murder, persecution, and other inhumane acts.
