The chief of staff then met with US chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Mark Milley and discussed strengthening cooperation between the two militaries and cooperation against threats in the region, especially Iran's nuclear program.
At the White House, Kohavi met with National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan and discussed defense challenges in the Middle East and the Iranian threat. The national security adviser stressed that the US stands behind President Joe Biden's commitment to prevent Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon.
