Trump refused to allow Netanyahu to launch a new military campaign against Iran before the Israeli elections, reports CNN. According to the channel's sources, the Prime Minister of Israel expected to receive approval for joint military operations with the United States against the Islamic Republic before the parliamentary elections on October 27. Netanyahu's main motive is claimed to have been to prevent disruption of the vote. At the beginning of October, Trump announced that Washington would not attack Iran before the mid-term elections for the US Congress if the oil supply continued through the Strait of Hormuz. He noted that the United States is having "fruitful discussions" with Tehran.
