The White House said Trump talked with Saudi Arabia's King Salman and Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi, both of whom have warned Trump against moving the US embassy in Israel to Jerusalem.

They are just the latest in a series of leaders Trump has called as he readies to break with decades-long US policy and de facto recognize Jerusalem as Israel's capital.
