Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Monday that the Trump administration provides him with daily updates on negotiations with Iran, remarks that drew swift criticism from US lawmakers and commentators.<\/p>\n
\u201cI spoke yesterday with Vice President J.D. Vance. He called me from his plane on his way back from Islamabad. He reported to me in detail, as this administration does every day, about the development of the negotiations,\u201d Netanyahu said at a Cabinet meeting.<\/p>\n
“The explosion came from the American side, which could not tolerate Iran’s blatant violation of the agreement to enter into negotiations. The agreement was that firing would cease and the Iranians would immediately open the straits. They did not do it. The Americans could not accept that,” Netanyahu claimed.<\/p>\n
The remarks triggered backlash in the US, including from Mark Pocan, a Democratic Congressman from Wisconsin, who wrote on X: \u201cThe Trump administration daily reports to Netanyahu on the Iranian war, but not Congress or the American people. Let that sink in.\u201d<\/p>\n
Former US National Counterterrorism Center Director Joe Kent who resigned over Iran war warned that negotiations would fail if the Trump administration fails to stop \u201cgiving them access to our decision making.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThe Israelis push for zero uranium enrichment because they know it\u2019s a poison pill for Iran & will result in the war continuing,\u201d he wrote on X.<\/p>\n
Conservative commentator Candace Owens also weighed in, saying Netanyahu \u201cenjoys publicly humiliating Donald Trump and JD Vance.\u201d<\/p>\n
The White House did not immediately respond to Netanyahu\u2019s claims.<\/p>\n
Pakistan mediated a temporary ceasefire between US and Iran war last week, but follow-up negotiations in Islamabad failed to produce a lasting agreement.<\/p>\n
Lebanon and Israel have also agreed to hold talks, with their first meeting scheduled in Washington on Tuesday.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Rabia Iclal Turan 14 April 2026\u2022Update: 14 April 2026 Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Monday that the…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":390758,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[85,46,43,180804],"class_list":["post-390757","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-israel","tag-il","tag-israel","tag-news","tag-sitekeywords"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/390757","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=390757"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/390757\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/390758"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=390757"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=390757"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=390757"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
