Trump, Netanyahu Discuss Iran Deal
Analysis based on 7 articles · First reported Feb 12, 2026 · Last updated Feb 13, 2026
The ongoing negotiations between the United States and Iran, with Israel's involvement, create uncertainty in global markets, particularly in the energy sector due to potential shifts in oil supply. The threat of 'traumatic' consequences for Iran if no deal is reached could lead to increased geopolitical risk premiums.
Former US President Donald Trump emphasized the critical need for a deal with Iran, warning of 'traumatic' outcomes if an agreement is not reached. This statement followed a meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who expressed skepticism about any deal but insisted it must address Iran's nuclear program, ballistic missiles, and support for proxy groups. Trump believes that the conditions he is creating, combined with Iran's past mistakes, could lead to a favorable agreement. He also referenced 'Operation Midnight Hammer', a past US military action in June 2025 that targeted Iranian nuclear infrastructure sites in Fordow, Iran===Natanz, and Iran===Isfahan, which Iran condemned as a violation of international law. The discussions highlight ongoing international efforts to manage Iran's nuclear ambitions and regional influence.
