Trump and Netanyahu have different approaches on Iran

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has said Israel will act to protect its own interests regarding Iran, even as the United States under President Donald Trump pursues a different path. Netanyahu has called for international involvement in any potential conflict and has maintained pressure on Iran.

Trump, however, has reportedly rebuffed suggestions from Netanyahu for more aggressive action, including regime change. Instead, Trump has announced a temporary halt on planned military strikes against Iran and has indicated he sees an opening for a potential deal with the country.
