"I will present to President Trump our perspective on the foundations of the negotiations, important principles that, in my opinion, are important not only for Israel but for everyone in the world who desires peace and security in the Middle East," Benjamin Netanyahu, Israel's prime minister, said Tuesday.
The Israeli Government wants Iran to stop uranium enrichment, reduce its ballistic missile program and end any support for militias in the region such as Hezbollah.
Iran has not only ruled out meeting those demands, but maintains that it will only limit its nuclear program in exchange for sanctions relief.
Ismail Baghaei, spokesman for the Iranian Foreign Ministry, urged the United States on Tuesday to remain isolated from the opinions of third countries, in reference to the planned visit with Netanyahu in Washington.

“Our interlocutor in the negotiations is the United States, and it is up to the United States to decide to act independently, without submitting to pressure or destructive influences that, without a doubt, harm the region and even go against America's own interests,” Baghaei said at a press conference.
Netanyahu reaffirmed to reporters his good relationship with the US, highlighting that this is his seventh official trip since the start of Donald Trump's second term.
"I think these things reflect the friendly closeness and unusual relationship we have with the United States, both I personally with President Trump and Israel with the United States, something that has never been equaled in our history," Netanyahu added.
He added that both will also address the situation in the Gaza Strip, without giving further details.
In the Strip, despite the ceasefire, Israeli troops maintain daily attacks.
Negotiations to close a nuclear deal between the US and Iran resumed last week, in a first meeting since the so-called twelve-day war, which took place in June of last year between Iran and Israel, in which Washington participated with the bombing of Iranian nuclear facilities.
The negotiations take place after Trump's threats to intervene militarily in the Persian country if they do not reach an agreement, accompanied by the deployment in waters near Iran of a fleet led by the aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln.
