US EditionNetanyahu Says US Deal with Iran Must Dismantle Nuclear Infrastructure
Netanyahu demands removal of all enriched uranium, dismantling of Iran's nuclear infrastructure, and strict inspections to prevent nuclear weapons development, citing regional and global security.
- On Sunday, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Jerusalem said any United States deal must dismantle Iran's nuclear program entirely and remove all enriched uranium.
- Earlier this month U.S. and Iranian negotiators resumed talks on February 6 in Oman, and Netanyahu conveyed his views to President Donald Trump last week, after which Trump pushed negotiations to continue while deploying two aircraft carriers.
- The prime minister highlighted measures such as Netanyahu's five red lines, including an around 200-mile ballistic missile limit, ending support for proxy groups including Hamas and Hezbollah, and substantive, no lead-time inspections.
- Netanyahu said he is very skeptical a deal can be struck, citing recent disagreement with Trump and US military preparations that heighten escalation risks.
- Despite offers, Iranian deputy foreign minister Majid Takht-Ravanchi told the BBC, 'We are ready to discuss this and other issues related to our programme if they are ready to talk about sanctions,' but Netanyahu's conditions are likely nonstarters for Tehran, which regards zero enrichment as a red line.
