US President Barack Obama and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will meet in November to discuss the Iran nuclear deal as well as other regional issues, the White House said on Wednesday, Reuters reported. The Nov. 9 White House meeting will be the first for the two leaders since the nuclear talks between Iran and major powers, including the US, resulted in a deal that Israel fiercely opposed. The dispute over the agreement, which calls for temporary curbs on Tehran’s nuclear program in return for sanctions relief, drove a deeper wedge in already tense relations between the Obama and Netanyahu governments.
