Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was to set a "clear red line" on Iran's nuclear program in a speech to the UN General Assembly later Thursday, an Israeli official said.
  
"In his speech, the prime minister will set a clear red line" on Iranian nuclear activities, a senior Israeli official told reporters travelling with Netanyahu as his plane arrived in New York.
  
The official said Netanyahu's comments on Thursday would be in line with the stance presented by US President Barack Obama in his own remarks to the General Assembly earlier this week.
  
"Netanyahu will say that the United States and Israel have a shared goal to prevent Iran from having nuclear arms," the official said. "What he will say regarding red lines will help ensure this goal will be achieved.
  
"Netanyahu is convinced that the US and Israel can work together to achieve this common goal," the official added, saying that the premier's comments "will not contradict what Obama said." "Obama said that Iran will not have nuclear weapons. Netanyahu will clarify the way to prevent Iran from having nuclear weapons."
