Netanyahu: My fight against the world paid off with Trump’s new Iran sanctions
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GooglePrime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says US President Donald Trump’s decision to reinstate all US sanctions on Iran that had been lifted under the 2015 nuclear deal proved that his often-criticized efforts to bring about such a result had paid off.
“For many years I have devoted my time and energy to the war against the Iranian threat. On this issue I went up almost against the whole world. Today we see the results of this long and ongoing struggle,” he tells his Likud faction meeting in the Knesset.
“I would like to thank President Donald Trump again for a courageous, determined and important decision. I think that this contributes to stability, security and peace,” Netanyahu says, adding it is ”a very big day for the State of Israel. This is a great day for the people of Israel. This is a great day for the future of Israel.”
