STORY: Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Monday (June 17) that Iran's election showed popular discontent with the Tehran government but was unlikely to bring about any change in nuclear policy.

"The Iranian election clearly reflects deep disaffection of the Iranian people with its regime, but unfortunately it doesn't have the power to change Iran's nuclear ambitions," Netanyahu told Reuters in an interview.
