Prime Minister Netanyahu is currently participating in the Knesset Foreign Affairs and Security Committee hearing, chaired by MK Yuli Edelstein, in which the Prime Minister is giving a political and security review to the committee members.

"Our position is clear, no agreement with Iran will oblige Israel to continue to do everything to defend itself. I believe that our opposition to returning to the original agreement is playing dividend but we are still at odds [with the US administration] and we're not hiding it," pointed out Netanyahu.

"With one hand we are working to curb Iran and with the other to expand the circle of peace. These scenarios present us with great challenges as well as great opportunities," he added.
