Danon: We’ll keep all action on the table
Deputy Defense Minister Danny Danon, speaking to Fox news right after the speech, says Israel is not buying Iran’s “sweet talk.”
“[Rouhani] is a master in buying time, and he is playing with the West. Now that he’s back in Iran, the real issue is what is he going to do with the reactors, the centrifuges.”
Danon adds that Israel “will keep all action on the table. We will do whatever is necessary to defend ourselves.”
However, he says he welcomes seeing the US “involved in diplomacy.”
