Netanyahu meets with US Senator David Perdue (R-GA) and says that “the Islamic Republic of Iran is relentlessly pursuing nuclear weapons with the express purpose of destroying the State of Israel. The P5+1’s latest proposal won’t stop them. The Iranians of course know the details of that proposal and Israel does too.

“So when we say that the current proposal would lead to a bad deal, a dangerous deal, we know what we’re talking about, Senator. I’m open to hearing the positions and arguments of those who think differently and I would hope that they would be open to hear the arguments of Israel as well.”

Netanyahu also says “Israel will continue to stand side-by-side with Egypt in the battle against terrorism, which threatens us all.”
