WASHINGTON (AP) - President Donald Trump is asking Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to "hold back on settlements for a little bit." Trump's comment came during a White House news conference with Netanyahu. Trump opened the news conference by saying he will encourage a peace agreement between Israel and the Palestinians, but the two parties themselves "must directly negotiate such an agreement." He also said that he'd like to see the U.S. Embassy in Israel moved from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, but added that "we're looking at it with great care."
