00:00Is President Trump the only person who has leverage over Benjamin Netanyahu to stop the deadly strikes on Iran?

00:08And if so, does he have the will and the want to actually do this?

00:15Let's put it in a different way. I believe President Trump offered Iran a very good deal.

00:21He offered them to stop the uranium enrichment, waive the sanctions and block the frozen money.

00:29And deal with Iran like just normal countries, ask Iran to stop its plastic missiles and stop supporting the group that's stabilizing the region.

00:39In return, Iran will be just normal country and a lot of foreign investment money will come to Iran.

00:44Iran need more than one trillion dollars for infrastructures.

00:47I mean, that's the offer that President Trump gave to Iranian.

00:50I think the Iranian, as usual, they just try to buy time, assuming that they will get more from President Trump.

01:00Is it President Trump is the only person who can influence Israel?

01:03I think he is. He is the right person to influence Israel.

01:05But the question, why to influence Israel?

01:08I mean, he offered the Iranians something they rejected.

01:11Is this the, again, so the question, is this the war, is the answer?

01:14Sure. Nobody likes the war, definitely. Nobody defends the war.

01:17But what other options Iran gives to the international community?

01:22They didn't offer anything, nothing substantial.

01:24I mean, they didn't show any goodwill that we are.

01:27They are willing to go forward in peaceful negotiations to solve that issue.

01:33What they did all was the opposite.

01:35They sit on the table, they say right words.

01:37When they came back to Tehran, they act in the opposite way.

01:41So the question, why Trump should stop this?

01:44Why Trump should put influence in Israel?

01:46I mean, this is the question rather than the question, is Trump can put influence or how can influence Israel?

01:51Definitely, Trump can influence Israel.

01:54The question, I think, from my perspective, is more about Iran rather than about Israel and the United States.

02:02Israeli intention to destroy Iranian nuclear reactor is not secret.

02:06They have talked about this for the last 20 years.

02:09Netanyahu Bibi Netanyahu himself, he said this more than for the last 20 years.

02:13So it's not a secret that Israeli wants to do this.

02:16And they were pushing all the American administration to do this.

02:19So, again, it's not secret.

02:21What's changing, I think, this time, the miscalculation of Iran that they thought, again,

02:26that they just can't buy time, sit and negotiate and talk, hoping the time will be on their own side.

02:33And this time it didn't work for them.
