According to CoinMeta, during a phone call last weekend between U.S. President Donald Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of the provisional government, there was a “hellish and intense argument” over whether to resume military actions against Iran. The report states that Netanyahu urged Trump to reinstate military action during the call, while Trump advocated for continuing diplomatic negotiations with Iran. The Israeli Prime Minister’s office responded to the reports as “fake news,” denying that the conversation was confrontational. A senior Israeli official confirmed the call to the media but emphasized that “it was by no means a difficult conversation.”
