June 3 (UPI) -- President Donald Trump said Wednesday that even though he works "very well" with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, he "was a little bit perturbed" by Israel's frequent fighting with Lebanon.
Trump made the comments during an appearance on the Pod Force One podcast with The New York Post's Miranda Devine. He said he called Netanyahu "[expletive] crazy" during a Monday phone call with him.
"I was a little bit perturbed at his constantly fighting with Lebanon," Trump said.
"We've worked very well together. I like Bibi a lot," Trump added, using a nickname for Netanyahu. "And I work very well with him."
