US President Donald Trump warned Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in a phone call last week against taking any steps that might disrupt ongoing US-Iran talks, Axios reported on Tuesday citing a White House official and a source familiar with the details.
Trump and other senior US officials have become increasingly worried that Israel could launch a strike on Iran’s nuclear infrastructure or engage in other actions that might derail the diplomatic process, the official was quoted as saying.
Trump told the Israeli prime minister that the "other option" is on the table, apparently referring to the military option, but that he wants to see first if a diplomatic solution is possible, the Axios report said.
