more time to let diplomacy work. we don t want a regime that has been a state sponsor of terrorism be able to feel it can act even more aggressively or with impugnity as a consequence of its nuclear power. that s why we worked so diligently to set up the most crippling sanctions ever with respect to iran. we do believe there is still a window that allows for a diplomatic resolution to this issue. but ultimately the iranians regime has to make a decision to move in that direction. israel must reserve the right to defend itself. after all, that the very purpose of the jewish state, to restore to the jewish people control over our destiny. and that s why my supreme responsibility as prime minister of israel is to insure that israel remains the master of its

we understand that president trump has a different way of conducting foreign policy. i don t agree with his style. but at the end of the day we all want diplomacy to work. harris: yeah. just to step back, because this is making news now, and she is a top democrat in the house. and she is saying that kim jong un must be having a giggle fit over the fact that this didn t work out. that is a tough tone. well, look, the perpetrator of the crisis is kim jong un in north korea. they are the ones violating international norms. we recognize that the successful path is through diplomacy. we must make diplomacy work. i think president trump at times has made the temperature too hot. where he should have used more diplomacy. so i don t necessarily agree with the style he is using. my guess is today s letter of withdraw is a strategy in negotiations. not one i would have used. so i m focused on getting us
