President Donald Trump met with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu Wednesday at the White House amid rising tensions in the Middle East as Trump threatened to attack Iran if it failed to negotiate over its nuclear program.

This was the Israeli prime minister’s seventh trip to Washington since President Trump returned to the White House 13 months ago.

"I will present to the president our outlook regarding the principles of these negotiations -- the essential principles, which, in my opinion are important not only to Israel, but to everyone around the world who wants peace and security in the Middle East," Netanyahu told reporters before boarding his flight to the United States on Tuesday.

Netanyahu had initially planned to visit Washington later this month but moved his trip up, saying last week he planned to discuss ongoing negotiations between the U.S. and Iran with the president. Sources told ABC News that Netanyahu would personally present the latest Israeli intelligence to Trump on Iran’s efforts to rebuild its ballistic missile program and nuclear program.
