Lindsey Graham's funeral draws Trump, Zelensky, Netanyahu

Senator Lindsey Graham of South Carolina died on July 11, 2026 at age 71 from an aortic dissection. A public funeral was held on July 28, 2026 at the Washington National Cathedral.

The service was attended by President Donald Trump, Vice President JD Vance, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and other senior officials. Trump delivered a eulogy calling Graham a “war hawk” and a “beloved friend.”

Later that day Trump met Zelenskyy in the Oval Office in a closed‑door meeting that lasted about an hour. Zelenskyy sought U.S. permission for Ukraine to produce Patriot air‑defence interceptors; Trump said he would consider granting the required licenses and discussed possible co‑production. The White House described the encounter as “positive and productive.”

Trump also met Netanyahu in a separate closed‑door Oval Office session, focusing on the war with Iran and broader regional security issues. Both foreign‑leader meetings took place shortly before the participants travelled to the funeral.
