JAKARTA - Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu claims US President Donald Trump agreed with him that negotiations conducted by the US-Iran without direct Israeli involvement must cover nuclear disarmament.

Netanyahu admitted that he had just communicated with Trump via telephone last night.

"That means dismantling Iran's nuclear enrichment sites and removing enriched nuclear material from its territory," Netanyahu said on his X account, Sunday, May 24.

Israel continues to seek to undermine Iran's nuclear program, which so far according to the UN nuclear watchdog (IAEA) is still within limits for civilian purposes.

On the one hand, Israel is the only real nuclear power in the Middle East that is not prohibited from using it for military weapons.

"My policy, like President Trump's, remains unchanged: Iran will not have nuclear weapons," Netanyahu added.

The country's top brass, who continue to campaign for this extreme right-wing politics, are breathing again to dominate southern Lebanon under the pretext of self-defense.

Southern Lebanon has become a new center of armed conflict after the destruction of Gaza and the expansion of the occupation in the West Bank by the Israeli military alias IDF.

Israel continues to carry out attacks on southern Lebanon despite a ceasefire agreement brokered by the US and announced in mid-April.

Although the attack caused many civilian casualties, instead of stopping its operations, Israel continued to carry out air and ground attacks until it occupied part of southern Lebanon on the grounds of being a 'yellow line'.

"President Trump also reaffirmed Israel's right to defend itself against threats on every front, including Lebanon," Netanyahu claimed.
