President Donald Trump continues to express confidence that a deal to end the Iran conflict is within reach, but multiple reports say Israel’s approach is a major obstacle. Bloomberg coverage frames Israel’s determination to pursue its own objectives as testing Trump’s ability to steer outcomes in the crisis. France 24 adds that the two leaders increasingly diverge on priorities: Washington is seeking a way out of a war that is disrupting oil markets and is becoming more politically unpopular in the United States, while Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is focused on political and domestic pressures. France 24 reports that Netanyahu faces elections by the end of October and also has a criminal investigation, factors that can shape his strategic calculations. Bloomberg and The Japan Times similarly describe the “Netanyahu problem” as a key hurdle, emphasizing that Trump’s control over the crisis appears limited when Israeli goals do not align with U.S. priorities. Taken together, the articles present an Iran deal that depends not only on negotiations with Iran but also on managing differences between the U.S. and Israel as hostilities continue.
