Defense Minister Benny Gantz addressed the Knesset’s Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee on Monday and called “to put an end to Iran’s ‘time-dragging’ strategy.”
Gantz discussed recent developments vis-à-vis Iran and spoke about his recent visit to the US.
He explained that “Iran’s domestic situation presents an opportunity for the international community. Iran is not a leading power – its citizens are suffering as a result of the poor economic situation, investments and development have been slashed by 50% in the last decade, and the country faces a variety of internal and external challenges. The Iranian regime is well aware of this situation and as such, Iran is coming into negotiations without real bargaining chips. It is possible and necessary to put an end to Iran’s ‘time-dragging’ strategy.” [Tazpit]
