Netanyahu and Obama discuss Iran and Palestine

"It is a very important visit that will emphasize the strong alliance between Israel and the United States, "said Benjamin Netanyahu , who has had an uneasy relationship withBarack Obama. The White House announced Tuesday that the U.S. president is scheduled to visit Israel ,the West Bank and Jordan in the spring, increasing the prospects of a new push for the resumption of peace efforts between Israelis and Palestinians, who have been frozen in recent two years. Washington has not released an exact date of Obama, the first U.S. president to Israel since taking office . The Israeli television Channel 10 last week cited unnamed sources who claimed U.S. beginning on March 20. Public Speaking at a cabinet session, Netanyahu declared that Iran was the top on his list of topics of conversation with the head of the U.S. State and referred in general terms to the peace efforts with the Palestinians, without establishing as a specific objective of the visit a revival of bilateral negotiations. "The president and I talked about this visit and we agree that we want to discuss three main issues: the attempt by Iran to acquire nuclear weapons, the unstable situation in Syria and efforts to advance the peace process between the diplomatic Palestinians and us, "said the premier. The visit will take place only after Netanyahu to form a new coalition government after his narrow victory in the elections of January 22 in Israel.
