Obama, Netanyahu to meet on September 30

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will meet US President Barack Obama in Washington on September 30, an Israeli official said on Tuesday, for talks expected to focus on Iran’s nuclear programme, SIA reports citing "Gulfnews".

Netanyahu, confirming he would see Obama but giving no exact date, said the talks would take place before he attended the annual United Nations General Assembly in New York.

"I intend to focus on the question of stopping Iran’s nuclear programme - an actual halt to the nuclear programme. And until this is achieved, the pressure on Iran should be intensified and not eased," Netanyahu told his cabinet.

Western powers suspect Iran of harbouring ambitions to build an atomic bomb, but Iran says its nuclear programme is intended purely for peaceful purposes.
