Israel’s ambassador to the United States has called on the Republicans in the US Congress reject the successful conclusion of nuclear talks between Iran and the P5+1 group of countries, despite the Obama administration’s warning to officials not to work against the agreement.
During a meeting with House Republicans on Wednesday, Ron Dermer said a comprehensive nuclear accord with Iran will pave the way for a powerful nuclear Iran. He said Congress is the last stop to thwart the agreement.
According to Reprehensive Steve King, Dermer’s message was: “‘Congress is the last stop to avoid this, and if this Congress doesn’t shut down the president’s deal… it paves the way for not just a nuclear Iran but a very highly powered nuclear Iran, and it changes the dynamics in the region, it changes the destiny of the world.’”
