Jerusalem: Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu claimed that Iran’s Islamic regime had pinpointed US President Donald Trump as a threat to its nuclear program and has been trying to assassinate him. Notably, assassination attempts were made on Trump twice last year while he was campaigning for the Presidential elections.
Asked whether he had any intel that the assassination attempts on Trump were directly from Iran, Netanyahu said, “Through proxies, yes, through their intel, yes, they want to kill him.” “They want to kill him. He’s enemy number one,” Netanyahu said, as quoted by Fox News.
Netanyahu calls himself Trump’s ‘junior partner’
“He’s a decisive leader. He never took the path that others took to try to bargain with them in a way that is weak, giving them basically a pathway to enrich uranium, which means a pathway to the bomb, padding it with billions and billions of dollars,” he said.
“He took up this fake agreement and basically tore it up. He killed Qasem Soleimani. He made it very clear, including now, ‘You cannot have a nuclear weapon, which means you cannot enrich uranium.’ He’s been very forceful, so for them, he’s enemy number one,” Fox News quoted Netanyahu as saying.
Netanyahu said that he was also a target of the regime after a missile was fired into the bedroom window of his home. He went on to call himself Trump’s “junior partner” in threatening Iran’s ability to weaponise nuclear arms.
