The public readout's description of topics discussed and the stated emphasis is accurate and attributable to the meeting participants.
Independent summaries of the December 29, 2025 meeting between U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu describe the discussion as focusing on regional security, economic cooperation, and the fight against antisemitism. The State Department readout, as mirrored by GlobalSecurity.org, further notes that both leaders "emphasized the importance of continued cooperation to promote peace and stability in the Middle East, in line with the vision of President Trump's 20-Point Peace Plan." A Kuwaiti News Agency (KUNA) report quoting the Principal Deputy State Department Spokesperson provides the same characterization of the meeting and its alignment with Trump’s 20-Point Peace Plan.
The verdict is True because multiple independent, reputable outlets reproducing official U.S. government readouts confirm all key elements of the statement: the topics discussed, the emphasis on continued cooperation, and the explicit linkage to President Trump’s 20-Point Peace Plan.
