Israel is ahead of schedule in reaching its war objectives in Iran, such as weakening the regime so that the Iranian people take control of their own fate, Ambassador to France Joshua Zarka says.
In Lebanon, the Lebanese government has not been able to disarm Hezbollah yet, Zarka adds in an interview with French TV station BFMTV, adding he is not aware of any decision from Israel to negotiate an end to its conflict with the terror group.
