Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says “the deal taking shape in Lausanne sends a message that there is no price to pay for aggression, even the opposite — Iran’s aggression will be rewarded. The moderate and responsible countries in the region, with Israel at the helm but also many other countries, will be the first to be hurt by such an agreement.
“It is incomprehensible how forces supported by Iran continue to conquer more and more land, and in Lausanne they close their eyes to this aggression,” Netanyahu adds.
He is referring to the nuclear talks between Iran and the P5+1 states, which have been taking place in Lausanne, Switzerland, for the past week and a half; and to the war in Yemen by the Houthis, a subsect of Shiite Islam, against the country’s Sunni president and government.
Iran, the world’s most powerful Shiite nation, has been tacitly supporting the Houthi rebels.
Help us report truthfully on social media
As a multimedia journalist, my job is to take the quality, fact-based journalism produced by The Times of Israel newsroom and make it accessible across every platform — from Instagram posts to podcasts to short-form videos.
This is how many, especially young people, consume news these days. But misinformation is rampant on social media. Our team at ToI produces accurate, responsible short-form reporting on Israel and the Jewish world.
If you believe in the importance of factual social media journalism, please consider joining our reader support group, The Times of Israel Community. Your financial support is essential to sustain responsible multimedia reporting.
