Reference Message Network reported on June 23rd according to a report by Deutsche Presse-Agentur on June 22nd, after the United States bombed Iran's nuclear facilities in support of Israel, Israeli President Isaac Herzog said on the 22nd that Israel did not ask the United States to go to war.

It was reported that Herzog said: "We did not drag the United States into the war." He said that Israel had always made it clear that the relevant decisions were left to U.S. President Trump to decide, and that Washington's involvement in this conflict was related to America's national security interests.

Regarding the further development of the war, Herzog said: "We have no intention and did not ask the United States to join the war now because of the threats from the Iranians to Israel."

He said that Iran's nuclear program poses a threat to "the security interests of the entire free world". As the leader of the free world, the United States also faces risks, so it is right to do so.

According to the report, the Israeli president emphasized that it was time to consider using diplomatic means. However, he emphasized that diplomacy must be effective diplomacy. The reason why diplomatic means have not succeeded so far is that the Iranians have been lying. (Compiled/Translated by Tu Qi)
