Netanyahu Tells Five World Leaders: Iran "Deal Is Bad and Dangerous"

(Prime Minister's Office) Prime Minister Netanyahu told the Israeli Cabinet on Sunday: "Over the weekend I spoke with U.S. President Barack Obama, Russian President Vladimir Putin, French President Francois Hollande, German Chancellor Angela Merkel and British Prime Minister David Cameron. I told them that according to the information reaching Israel, the apparent deal is bad and dangerous. It is dangerous not just for us; it is also dangerous for them." "It is dangerous for world peace because it lowers the pressure of sanctions that took years to build while, on the other hand, Iran, in practice, retains its nuclear enrichment capability as well as the ability to advance along the plutonium track." "A good agreement means an agreement that reduces or completely dismantles Iran's ability to arm itself with nuclear weapons or to prepare and produce material for nuclear weapons. A bad agreement leaves this ability intact and lets the air out of the sanctions....We will do our utmost to convince the major powers and the leaders to avoid a bad agreement."
