Netanyahu to Discuss Renewed Sanctions Against Iran With Trump

EghtesadOnline: Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said he will bring up renewed sanctions on Iran when he meets with U.S. President Donald Trump at the White House next month, citing Iran’s testing of a ballistic missile.

Netanyahu will visit the U.S. Feb. 15 for talks with the president, White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer said at his daily briefing Monday, according to Bloomberg.

“In my coming meeting with President Trump, I plan to raise the resumption of sanctions against Iran in this context and in other contexts,” Netanyahu said on Twitter. “Iranian aggression will not go unanswered.”

Spicer said the White House is aware that Iran has carried out a missile test.
