The White House said on Friday the United States is hopeful that it can hold together the coalition of countries working toward an agreement with Iran on its nuclear program despite Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s efforts to scuttle the international diplomacy over Iran’s nuclear issue. White House spokesman Josh Earnest said the administration does not see Netanyahu’s upcoming visit to Washington as bad for the negotiations, Reuters reported. Netanyahu is opposed to the nuclear talks with Iran and has been invited by Republicans who share his view to address the US Congress on Iran next week.
