Biden’s remarks came as the US is still in discussions with Israel about how Israel will retaliate against Iran’s missile attacks on Tuesday.
Washington: In what seemed to be an expression of opposition to Israel conducting strikes on Iran’s oil production facilities, US President Joe Biden has told reporters that he wouldn’t do so if he were the one making a decision.
“Look, the Israelis have not concluded how they’re — what they’re going to do in terms of a strike. That’s under discussion. I think there are — if I were in their shoes, I’d be thinking about other alternatives than striking oil fields,” Biden said on Friday as he appeared for the first time at the White House press briefing during his presidency.
