Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's latest remarks to Fox News reaffirm the shared objective he and President Donald Trump outlined during their White House meeting this week.

The interview follows Netanyahu's earlier characterization of the meeting as 'one of the best we've had,' as The Zioneer reported Tuesday night. The prime minister's statement underscores the centrality of the Iranian nuclear threat to the current US-Israel dialogue, even as diplomatic tracks with Tehran remain active.
