The United States emphasizes that “it is willing to use all the tools of its national power to secure that objective,” this statement states.
When asked by a journalist about whether the United States is prepared to make diplomatic efforts, Biden replied that his government set out the terms required for the agreement to be restored. “We are not going to wait forever” for Iran to respond, he noted. Israel is a staunch opponent of an international deal with Iran over its nuclear program, which Biden is trying to revive, after Donald Trump unilaterally withdrew from the 2015 pact.
Lapid warned that “words” and “diplomacy” are not enough to stop Iran’s alleged ambitions to acquire a nuclear bomb. “The only way to stop them is to put a credible military threat on the table,” Lapid said alongside Biden at the news conference.
Iran insists that its nuclear program is for civilian purposes.
Its president, Ebrahim Raisi, warned Washington and its Middle Eastern allies that they should not try to destabilize the region. “The Iranian nation will not accept any insecurity or crisis in the region,” the president said in a televised speech. “Any mistake in this region will be met with a firm and regrettable response,” he noted.
Biden arrived in Tel Aviv on Wednesday on the first tour of the Middle East since taking office. It is his tenth trip to Israel since he was first elected a senator in the 1970s. Today he has a meeting with Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas in the West Bank on the agenda.
