As long as Trump remains determined to remove enriched uranium from Iran, it is in Israel’s best interest that Iran does not cave and no deal is reached. ​Removing the enriched material through an agreement would, in all likelihood, involve the lifting of sanctions and economic benefits that would significantly increase the regime’s chances of survival. While such a move would be a major achievement, it is preferable that the material be removed in a manner that leaves a more tangible horizon for the regime’s collapse in the short-to-medium term. ​Therefore, in the internal struggle currently unfolding within Iran, one should actually root for the Revolutionary Guards (IRGC), who dictate a more extreme and uncompromising line.

Netanyahu at a cabinet meeting: "I spoke yesterday with Vice President J.D. Vance. He called me from his plane on his way back from Islamabad. He reported to me in detail, as this administration does every day, about the development of the negotiations. In this case, the explosion in the negotiations. The explosion came from the American side, which could not tolerate Iran's blatant violation of the agreement to enter the negotiations. The agreement was that they would cease fire, and the Iranians would immediately open the gates. They did not do that. The Americans could not accept that. He also made it clear to me that the main issue on the agenda for President Trump and the United States is the removal of all enriched material, and ensuring that there is no more enrichment in the coming years, and that could be in decades, no enrichment within Iran. That is their focus, and of course it is also important to us."
