Israel open to ‘good’ Iran nuclear deal
On Tuesday Prime Minister Naftali Bennett said that Israel would not automatically oppose a nuclear deal with Iran but world powers must take a firmer position.
“We are not the bear who said ‘no’,” Bennett said in an interview with Israel’s Army Radio, referring to a popular naysaying character from children’s literature.
Israel prefers a more result-oriented approach, he said.
“For sure there can be a good agreement. For sure. We know the parameters. Is that expected to happen now in the current dynamics? No. Because there needs to be a much firmer position,” he said.
“Iran is negotiating with a very weak hand. But unfortunately the world is acting like Iran is at a strong point.”
