Trump too 'scared' to join Israeli attacks on Iran, says Bibi has 'no choice' but to accept deal

Donald Trump has signaled that recent Iran-Israel hostilities will not derail ongoing U.S.-Iran diplomacy, insisting that negotiations should be judged on their own merits. In an interview with the Financial Times, Trump said Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu would have "no choice" but to accept any agreement reached by Washington and stressed that U.S. policy decisions are made in the White House. The remarks come amid reports of growing tensions between Washington and Tel Aviv over Iran, Lebanon and broader regional strategy. Despite renewed missile exchanges between Iran and Israel, the Trump administration appears determined to keep diplomatic channels with Tehran open while seeking to prevent a wider regional escalation.
