Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said in a social media post on Sunday that he spoke with US President Donald Trump the previous night to discuss the latest developments in the ongoing negotiations with Iran, and both agreed that any deal with Iran “must eliminate the nuclear danger”.

“I spoke last night with President Donald Trump about the memorandum of understanding to reopen the Straits of Hormuz and the upcoming negotiations toward a final agreement on Iran’s nuclear programme,” the Israeli PM said.

“President Trump and I agreed that any final agreement with Iran must eliminate the nuclear danger. That means dismantling Iran’s nuclear enrichment sites and removing its enriched nuclear material from its territory,” Netanyahu wrote.

Iran keeps stating repeatedly that its nuclear programme is for civilian purposes only, but has highly enriched uranium which is not needed elsewhere. Hence, many countries as well as the UN nuclear watchdog, the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), are not convinced by its claims.
