WASHINGTON _ The findings _ or lack of findings _ in the Robert Mueller report removes one of the major hurdles that has frustrated President Donald Trump's foreign policy.
On the eve of a meeting between Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at the White House Monday, the diplomatic community, including allies and adversaries, now must accept that Trump is likely to remain in power for the next two years.
That is welcome news for Israeli officials, who said Sunday that the report clears the air for the president's meetings with Netanyahu. The Israeli leader _ himself embattled with indictments at home he claims are similarly political _ visits Washington just two weeks before a hard-fought election.
