US President Barack Obama said his government was not giving “anything away” by holding a new series of talks with Iran, and that he was making sure the negotiations were not turning into a “stalling process.” Obama’s speech, at a news conference concluding the Summit of the Americas in Colombia, was a direct response to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu\'s statement that the US had given Iran a “freebie” by agreeing to hold more talks. Some Western powers suspect that Tehran is harboring a nuclear weapons program.
