The two officials met Thursday to discuss Iran\u2019s nuclear and ballistic missile programs as well as Joe Biden\u2019s efforts to restore the failed 2015 nuclear deal implemented under former President Barack Obama. Gantz said the international community must take a tougher stance to prevent Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><strong>\u201cIran is not just a threat to our physical security; Iran possess a concrete threat to our way of life and our shared values,\u201d stated the Israeli Defense Minister. \u201cIn its aspirations to become a hegemon, Iran seeks to destroy all traces of freedom, human dignity and peace in the Middle East and beyond.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>For his part, Austin, yet again, reiterated U.S. commitment to Israeli defense and he called for a two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Today I hosted Israeli Minister of Defense <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/gantzbe?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@gantzbe<\/a> at the Pentagon. We discussed our concern with recent Iranian actions and affirmed U.S. commitment to Israel\u2019s security and preventing Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/EMASdX6yJH\">pic.twitter.com\/EMASdX6yJH<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Secretary of Defense Lloyd J.

Psaki made that announcement also on Thursday, adding the only way the U.S. will end sanctions is if they come to a new agreement on a nuclear deal.<\/p>\n<p>These remarks came after State Secretary Antony Blinken said Iran wasn\u2019t taking efforts to make a deal seriously during last week\u2019s nuclear talks in Vienna. Psaki further added that the U.S. is considering sending a delegation to the UAE next week to discuss possible economic sanctions.<\/p>\n<h4>MORE NEWS:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/biden-white-house-wont-send-troops-to-ukraine\/\">Biden White House Won\u2019t Send Troops To Ukraine<\/a><\/h4>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Israeli Defense Minister Benny Gantz, speaks during a meeting with Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin at the Pentagon, Thursday, Dec. 9, 2021, in Washington.
