Lapid to Ohio lawmakers – Israel is Iran’s target

Yesh Atid party chairman Yair Lapid meets a delegation of Republican and Democratic lawmakers from Ohio.

At the opening of the meeting Lapid tells the lawmakers that an agreement with Iran cannot be just the subject of bipartisan, domestic debate but must be looked at from a wider perspective, according to a report in Hebrew language website NRG.

Israel, he says, has the right to express its concern over the agreement, which it sees as a bad deal.

Israel, Lapid says, is within the range of Iran’s missiles and is the declared target of Iran.
