Israel PM sees Iran nuke deal ‘shortly’
Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett yesterday said that Iran may "shortly" agree a new nuclear deal with major powers but warned it will be weaker than the original 2015 agreement.
Bennett was speaking ahead of a cabinet meeting following indications that the outline of a deal was taking shape at talks in Vienna.
"We may see an agreement shortly," Bennett said, adding that the deal that appeared to be in the making "is shorter and weaker than the previous one".
Bennett has been a staunch opponent of the deal and repeatedly warned any revenue Tehran sees as a result of new sanctions relief will be used to purchase weapons that could harm Israelis.
