The reason for this is different ideas about how to deal with a new proposal to end the Iran war, reported the portal “Axios” and the “Wall Street Journal”, citing unnamed sources.

One of the sources told “Axios” that Netanyahu was in turmoil after the conversation on Tuesday and his head was spinning. Qatar and Pakistan, together with other partners, presented a revised peace proposal to bridge the differences between the USA and Iran. Trump is said to have said with regard to Netanyahu that he would do whatever he told him.
After renewed threats, Trump recently declared that he would postpone a new attack on Iran – on the grounds that there were serious negotiations. He spoke of a positive development. According to media reports, Netanyahu is skeptical about the negotiations and wants to restart the war that they started together at the end of February in order to further weaken Iran’s military capabilities.
