Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu spoke with former U.S. President Donald Trump, the prime minister's office said on Sunday.
"Prime Minister Netanyahu reiterated what he has also said publicly: Israel takes into account the issues the U.S. administration raises, but in the end, will make its decisions based on its national interests," it said.
Trump, speaking later to reporters in Philadelphia, said he had had "a very nice call" with Netanyahu on Saturday.
The Israeli prime minister had asked his opinion about what to do with Iran, he said. Israel is pondering its military reaction to recent Iranian missile strikes.
"He was asking what I thought. And I just said, you do what you have to do," Trump said.
