He noted that a deal could be reached in a matter of weeks, though he acknowledged that circumstances might change suddenly. Reports indicated that Netanyahu may have threatened to strike Iran&#8217;s nuclear facilities, leading to a contentious discussion between the leaders, although netanyahu&#8217;s office denied any claims of a tense conversation.
