Israeli Prime Minister and United States President are set to sign a join declaration committing to preventing Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons. This agreement is expected to be announced after an individual meeting on Thursday morning in West Jerusalem. President Joe Biden is on his second day of his four-day Middle East tour.
