Netanyahu Says He Receives Daily US Updates on Iran Talks
At a cabinet meeting, Netanyahu said: “I spoke yesterday with Vice President J.D. Vance. He called me from his plane on his way back from Islamabad. He reported to me in detail, as this administration does every day, about the development of the negotiations,” referring to what he described as regular communication from US officials.
He also made further claims about recent developments in the conflict, stating: "The explosion came from the American side, which could not tolerate Iran's blatant violation of the agreement to enter into negotiations. The agreement was that firing would cease and the Iranians would immediately open the straits. They did not do it. The Americans could not accept that," according to his remarks.
The comments sparked immediate criticism in the United States. One Democratic member of Congress, Mark Pocan of Wisconsin, wrote on X: “The Trump administration daily reports to Netanyahu on the Iranian war, but not Congress or the American people. Let that sink in.”
Former US National Counterterrorism Center Director Joe Kent, who stepped down during the Iran conflict, also warned that negotiations could collapse if the administration continues what he described as “giving them access to our decision making.”
