Ynet – Defense Minister Moshe Ya’alon on Tuesday described reported fears that Israel has lost its power to influence the United States in regards to the Iranian nuclear program as “exaggerated.”
“The relations between us are excellent and are based on common values and interests,” he said. “Even between such friends there can be differences.”
