WASHINGTON, April 20 (Reuters) – President ​Donald Trump said on Monday ‌that Israel did not persuade him to attack Iran, after news reports ​that Israeli leader Benjamin ​Netanyahu influenced the U.S. president’s ⁠decision and criticism from right-wing commentators.

“Israel ​never talked me into the ​war with Iran, the results of Oct. 7th, added to my lifelong ​opinion that IRAN CAN NEVER ​HAVE A NUCLEAR WEAPON, did,” Trump wrote ‌in ⁠a Truth Social post.

Trump also said “the results in Iran will be amazing” in ​the post, ​which came ⁠as the United States prepared to resume negotiations in ​Pakistan although Iran was ​undecided.

“And ⁠if Iran’s new leaders (Regime Change!) are smart, Iran can have ⁠a ​great and prosperous ​future!” Trump wrote.
