During a meeting in Washington with US President Donald Trump, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu expressed doubts about the possibility of reaching an agreement with Iran, Axios reports.

Netanyahu expressed skepticism during his meeting with Trump about the chance of a deal with Iran and discussed increasing economic pressure on Iran "through kinetic and non-kinetic means," a senior Israeli official said in a briefing with reporters.

The Israeli official said they discussed three options Trump is considering for next steps: reaching a deal with Iran, continuing the naval blockade on Iran while increasing economic pressure, as well as resuming and intensifying military strikes.

"We discussed all of those options at length and very candidly. Not as an attempt to promote one option over another, but to examine what the best outcome would be from each. That's what the conversation was about," the official said.
