Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu stated that there are no issues in his relations with US President Donald Trump.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, in a statement to the American press, rejected claims of 'differences of opinion with US President Donald Trump on the issue of Iran.' Netanyahu stated that the common goal of the two countries is to prevent Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons, asserting that Trump is doing what is best for the US, while he is doing what is best for Israel. Netanyahu said, "As in every family, in every close friendship, sometimes there are differences of opinion, and we discuss them openly. We usually resolve them."
Arguing that they share the same goals with the US regarding Iran, Netanyahu said, "We want Iran to abandon its nuclear weapons program. We want enriched nuclear material to be removed from the country and nuclear enrichment facilities to be dismantled."
Netanyahu stated that Trump believes these goals can be achieved through negotiations, noting that Israel has the support not only of the US but also of other countries like India. Claiming that they have 'many friends' and 'stand by their friends,' Netanyahu expressed that with Iran's 'weakening,' more countries want to align with them.
