He was speaking after a meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Washington. Trump said the meeting went “very well,” and that the two discussed Iran and other security issues. He made it clear that the final decision rests with him.

Netanyahu said he hopes the US and Iran can reach a deal, but said Israel is skeptical. He said any comprehensive deal must include Iran's ballistic missile program and its support for regional forces.
