"These were very good and important talks designed to further enhance the steadfast bond between Israel and the U.S.," Netanyahu said. "We see eye to eye on the Iranian threat in all its aspects, and on the dangers they reflect. We also see the great opportunities facing Israel, in the area of peace and its expansion, and in other areas."

Netanyahu and Trump have discussed Iran several times since the U.S. election results, with Israeli President Herzog set to meet current President Biden.

Israel’s fight against Hamas in Gaza and Hezbollah in Lebanon is set to dominate the agenda at gatherings in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, and the White House this week.
