Former Israeli consul general: Netanyahu ‘not natural partner’ in Trump’s push for Mideast peace
“He [Trump] is now focused on world peace, peace with the Iranians, and expanding the Abraham Accords,” Dayan said, adding that Trump’s Iran plans “don’t look great” for Israel.

Yaki Dayan, Israel’s former consul general in Los Angeles, said that US President Donald Trump’s push for an agreement with Iran reflects a change in direction in Washington and has raised concern in Israel.
In an interview with 103FM, Dayan said Trump has moved into a new phase.
“Trump has moved into a phase. He is now focused on world peace, peace with the Iranians, and expanding the Abraham Accords,” Dayan explained. “He will want to show in signs and wonders that he is a president of peace.”
Addressing the details of the emerging agreement with Tehran, Dayan said the picture is not encouraging.
“From his point of view, the picture of victory is enriched uranium and stopping nuclear enrichment. However, they are talking about not even removing the enriched material, but diluting it, which is a problem in itself,” he said.
