Xinhua News Agency, Washington, August 27 (Reporter Liu Pinran) US President Biden met with visiting Israeli Prime Minister Bennett on the 27th to discuss the Iranian nuclear issue and security relations between the two countries.

  Biden and Bennett held a one-on-one meeting at the White House that day, and then participated in an enlarged meeting of the delegations of the two countries, during which they met with the media in the Oval Office of the White House.

  Biden said that he will discuss with Bennett the US's security commitments to Israel, the Iranian nuclear issue, Palestine-Israel relations, and support for Israel to deepen relations with Arab and Islamic countries.

  Biden said that the United States and Israel are committed to ensuring that Iran will not develop nuclear weapons. The United States is giving priority to solving the Iranian nuclear issue through diplomatic means. If the diplomatic channel fails, the United States is prepared to turn to "other options."

  Bennett said in his speech that Israel and the United States have formulated a "comprehensive strategy" with the goal of stopping Iran's "regional aggression" and permanently preventing Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons. The two sides will continue to discuss this.

  Bennett has met with Secretary of State Blincoln and Secretary of Defense Austin respectively on the 25th.

Biden originally planned to meet with Bennett on the 26th, but the meeting was postponed to the 27th due to a suicide bomb attack in the Afghan capital Kabul that killed 13 American soldiers and injured 18 others.

  This is Bennett's first official visit since he became Israeli Prime Minister in June this year.

Analysts believe that due to tensions between former Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu and the US Democratic Party during his administration, one of the purposes of Bennett's visit is to repair the relationship between Israel and the Democratic Party.

  The talks between the parties to the comprehensive agreement on the Iranian nuclear issue began on April 6 this year in Vienna, the capital of Austria, to discuss the issue of the United States and Iran's resumption of compliance. Six rounds of talks have been held so far.

Israel opposes the comprehensive agreement on the Iranian nuclear issue, saying that Iran is trying to develop nuclear weapons.

Iran insists that its nuclear-related activities are for peaceful purposes and that Iran has the right to peacefully use nuclear energy.
