    **High-Stakes Diplomacy: Netanyahu and Trump Target Iran's Nuclear Program**

    Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu heads to the White House this week for urgent talks with President Trump on Iran's nuclear capabilities, missiles, and regional proxies. The meeting comes on the heels of groundbreaking indirect negotiations in Muscat, Oman, where U.S. envoys spent eight hours with Iranian officials—including a symbolic handshake with Foreign Minister Araghchi. While Iran signals openness to limiting uranium enrichment, it firmly rejects any restrictions on its defensive missile program. With tensions escalating and military pressure mounting, this diplomatic pivot could reshape the Middle East landscape.
