As expected in Washington today, Israeli Prime Minster Benjamin Netanyahu used his speech before a joint session of Congress to warn against trusting Iran.

Netanyahu said the negotiations between the U.S. and Iran on Iran’s nuclear program, rather than preventing the country from developing a bomb, would pave the way for developing a weapon.

Joining Here & Now hosts Robin Young and Jeremy Hobson to talk about this are Greg Myre, NPR’s digital editor for international news, and Ron Elving, NPR’s senior Washington editor.
