(White House) U.S. National Security Advisor Susan Rice met with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Wednesday in Jerusalem where they discussed a wide range of issues, including the U.S. and Israel's close security cooperation. On Iran, Ambassador Rice emphasized the critical importance of pursuing a comprehensive solution that assures the international community that Iran's nuclear program is exclusively peaceful. She reiterated that the U.S. will not allow Iran to acquire a nuclear weapon.
