US President Barack Obama said Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu did not offer any real alternative amid the ongoing negotiations over Iran’s nuclear program during his address to the US Congress on Tuesday, according to AFP.
Obama said “there was nothing new” from Netanyahu during his controversial speech to Congress, one that was organized with Republican lawmakers and not the White House or US State Department.
In his congressional address, Netanyahu said a deal with Tehran would all but guarantee that Iran would have the capabilities to build nuclear weapons.
“This deal won’t change Iran for the better; it will only change the Middle East for the worse,” he said. “A deal that’s supposed to prevent nuclear proliferation would instead spark a nuclear arms race in the most dangerous part of the planet,” a Middle East, he added, that would be “criss-crossed with nuclear trip wires.”
“This is a bad deal,” he said. “And we’re better off without it.”
