US looking to align positions with Israel on response to Iran

The Biden administration over the next few days will focus its engagements with the Israelis to try to align its perspectives on any potential response to the Iranian attack on Israel, US Deputy Secretary Kurt Campbell says, describing the current situation in the Middle East as “a moment of peril.”

“I think we recognize as important as a response of some kind should be, there is a recognition that the region is really on a knife’s edge, and real concerns about an even broader escalation or a continuing one,” says Campbell, speaking at a virtual event by DC-based think-tank Carnegie Endowment.
