Washington (CNN) — President Donald Trump may travel to Israel for the opening of the US embassy in Jerusalem, which is slated to take place in May.
"I may. I may," Trump said on Monday as he welcomed Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to the Oval Office. "They have started, as you know, construction and I may."
"We're looking at coming," Trump added. "If I can, I will."
The Trump administration has repeatedly shifted its timeline for moving the US embassy to Jerusalem from Tel Aviv, which Trump announced in December as he recognized Jerusalem as Israel's capital.
