Dear MEPIN Readers,
Watch my discussion on ILTV as Prime Minister Netanyahu travels to Washington this Wednesday for a high-stakes meeting with President Trump, against the backdrop of renewed U.S.–Iran negotiations. Israel is deeply concerned that Iran is deliberately dragging out negotiations to buy time—time to continue advancing its ballistic missile program. Netanyahu is expected to press the president to avoid falling into this trap and to ensure that any agreement does not focus solely on the nuclear file.
At stake is whether Israel will receive U.S. backing to act unilaterally if necessary—or, at the very least, whether Washington will limit concessions that could lead to sanctions relief. Such relief would funnel billions to Iran’s terror proxy network while further abandoning the Iranian people.
We also discuss what comes next for Gaza and Hezbollah, as Israel faces growing threats on multiple fronts.
Watch the conversation for analysis of what this pivotal meeting could mean for Israel, the region, and U.S. policy moving forward.
