PM: Israel will not bound any nuclear deal with Iran

Bennett described Iran as being “in a very advanced stage of its nuclear program”, and with high uranium enrichment capability.

He implied that Israel is ready to take action against its arch enemy.

“Israel must maintain its capabilities to act and its freedom of action, in every situation and under any political circumstance,” he said.

Like his predecessor Benjamin Netanyahu, Bennett is a staunch opponent of the 2015 nuclear deal, signed between the world powers and Iran in order to curb Iran’s nuclear program.

Israel fears that a possible new deal would not put enough safeguards to prevent Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons.
