Netanyahu calls on Trump every day to renew the conflict with Iran.
Netanyahu daily asks Trump to renew the conflict with Iran, the FT reports, citing a source.
"Netanyahu calls him every day to encourage him to renew the war," a diplomat told the newspaper on condition of anonymity. According to him, in the White House and in the Middle East, the opponents of escalation are urging Trump to choose negotiations.
The publication notes that Arab leaders are frightened by Netanyahu's calls. In mid-June, the United States and Iran signed a memorandum on the peace process, but three weeks later the exchange of blows resumed, leading to an almost complete stoppage of shipping through the Strait of Hormuz and an increase in global fuel prices.
In late September, Tehran offered a seven-day plan to reopen Hormuz in exchange for lifting the blockade, but Trump rejected it. On November 1, Arakchi reported that the period had been reduced to two days, and now everything depended on the US response.
