Biden on Israel’s response to Iran: “Israel has not yet decided what to do”

US President Joe Biden said at a press briefing at the White House that “if he were Israel, he would think about alternative options to attacks on Iranian oil facilities.”

At the same time, Biden emphasized: “Israel has not yet decided what to do.”

Biden added that “the Israeli authorities are not going to make a decision right away.” The main thing, according to the US President, is to avoid a full-scale war in the region.

Note that on October 1, Joe Biden told reporters that the United States fully supports Israel, and the US National Security Council team is in contact with its Israeli counterparts.

When asked how he would like to see Israel’s response to Iran’s attack, the US President replied that this issue is now being actively discussed. He also noted that he will soon talk with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
