Alternate Prime Minister Naftali Bennett publicly called on the Biden Administration not to sign a new nuclear agreement with Iran amidst reports that the sides are close to reaching a final agreement.
"I call on President Biden and the American administration to refrain, even now at this last minute, from signing the agreement with Iran. This agreement will send approximately a quarter of a trillion dollars to the Iranian terror administration's pocket and to its regional proxies, and will enable Iran to develop, install and operate centrifuges, with almost no restrictions, in a mere two years," Bennett said.
"Throughout the past year, even when it was very close, we successfully convinced our White House counterparts not to give in to Iranian demands. I hope this will remain the case," he added.
"One way or another, the State of Israel is not a party to the agreement. Israel is not committed to any of the restrictions stemming from the agreement and will utilize all available tools to prevent the Iranian nuclear program from advancing," the Alternate Prime Minister concluded.
