U.S. President Donald Trump called Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Monday evening, according to a read-out released by the prime minister’s office.
The two leaders spoke at length about the dangers posed by the nuclear deal with Iran and by Iran’s malevolent behavior in the region and about the need to work together to counter those dangers, Netanyahu’s spokesperson wrote in the statement.
“The Prime Minister took the opportunity to again thank the President for his warm hospitality during his recent visit to Washington, and expressed his appreciation for the President’s strong statement against anti-Semitism during the President’s speech before Congress last week,” he added in the statement.
