US and Israel at Odds Over Iran Talks Israeli officials don't think the Biden administration is listening to their concerns on Iran
The US and Israel have been holding strategic talks on Iran policy through a forum headed by each country’s national security advisor. Israeli officials told
Axios that during recent talks, Israeli National Security Advisor Meir Ben-Shabbat felt the US is not showing “sufficient consideration” of Israel’s position regarding diplomacy with Iran.
The Israeli officials said that the US side raised concern over the fact that Israel was carrying out operations against Iran without fully consulting the US. Earlier this month, an attack at Iran’s Natanz nuclear facility was attributed to Israel, which was a clear attempt to sabotage the Vienna talks. Before that, an Iranian ship was attacked in the Red Sea, which was also attributed to Israel.
