Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Monday continued to voice displeasure with the agreement to halt Iran’s nuclear program.

Expressing his opposition on his Twitter feed, Netanyahu said while the negotiations between six world powers and Iran “led to a better result than originally planned,” it is “still a bad deal.”

President Barack Obama called Netanyahu on Sunday in an effort to assuage the Israeli leader’s misgivings with the deal.
