Senior Iranian officials A meeting between us and Israeli officials announced on Monday that it was an illegal effort to thwart Tehran’s nuclear ambitions.
Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmaeil Baghaei slammed the meeting for violating international law and was still powerless when he believed Washington, D.C. and Washington and Tel Aviv were still powerless.
According to readers provided by state media, he told reporters: “When it comes to countries like Iran, they can’t do anything damn.”

Netanyahu said momentum was growing between the United States and his country after Sunday’s meeting, telling reporters: “I have no doubt that we can and will do the job.”
However, this is fiercely controversial in Baghaei.
He added: “You can’t threaten Iran on the one hand and claim to support the dialogue.”
Baghaei’s speech comes after Netanyahu boasted that Israeli military operations weakened Iran’s proxy groups middle Eastincluding the Palestinian terrorist organization Hamas.
“We can and will do this work,” the Israeli Prime Minister said.

Some analysts suggest that Israel’s growing number of fun remarks, including in Tehran’s nuclear program, could give Trump an interest in reaching a peace deal with Iran.
Rubio said yesterday that the meeting further promoted what he called President Donald Trump’s “bold” plan for Gaza, saying Iran is the biggest obstacle to peace in the region. “The president is also very bold about his view of Gaza’s future. The idea of the past is not the same idea, but a bold thing, and frankly, it’s for the courage and vision to outline,” he said.
Netanyahu also said he and Trump shared a “common strategy” for Gaza, which included the complete destruction of Hamas as a political and military force.

Trump last week recommended the evacuation of Palestinians from Gaza so that the territory could develop under U.S. ownership.
He has since said that despite widespread concern and criticism of further conflict and displaced persons, he still sticks to the plan.
“I’m committed to buying and owning Gaza,” Trump said at the time. “For us to rebuild, we can hand it over to other states in the Middle East to build various parts of it, and others can do it through our hosts.” . But we are committed to having, accepting and making sure that Hamas is not going back.”

The United States-Israel Conference also achieved symbolic purpose. While sitting down, the United States sent a batch of heavy bombs and ammunition to Israel in line with Trump’s promise last month.
“Ammunition and bomb cargo “represents an important asset of the Air Force and the IDF” and further demonstrates a strong alliance between Israel and the United States,” Israel Defense Official said.
