Gantz calls on world to tighten sanctions on Iran after Fordo site reactivated
Blue and White party chief Benny Gantz, the current prime minister-designate, calls on the international community to tighten sanctions on Iran after it renewed nuclear activity in its facility in Fordo.
The development “is another wake-up call for the world — pressure must be increased and sanctions tightened,” Gantz says in a tweet. “Iran is dangerous for the world’s security. Iran is dangerous for Middle East stability. Iran is dangerous for Israel.
“There is no political disagreement [in Israel] regarding the Iranian threat — we are all committed to preventing Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons.”
