President Joe Biden will host Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett for a meeting at the White House on Aug. 26, the White House said on Wednesday.
"The President and Prime Minister Bennett will discuss critical issues related to regional and global security, including Iran," according to White House press secretary Jen Psaki.
"The visit will also be an opportunity for the two leaders to discuss efforts to advance peace, security, and prosperity for Israelis and Palestinians and the importance of working towards a more peaceful and secure future for the region."
"We will come very focused with a policy of partnership that aims to curb Iran's destabilizing, negative regional activity, its human rights abuses, terrorism and preventing its nearing nuclear breakout," Bennett said at a news conference.
Talks between Tehran and six world powers to revive the nuclear pact ditched three years ago by then US President Donald Trump have stalled since they began in April.
Israel is wary of the deal being revived. It views a nuclear-armed Iran as an existential threat. Teheran denies seeking the bomb.
