Danon: Trump's eagerness to finish talks let Iran improve its negotiating position

Primary source Internal intake · 1 reviewed intake signal · Desk window 08:06

TL;DR

Israeli Ambassador to the UN Danny Danon said Wednesday morning that the emerging US-Iran framework agreement is "very bad for Israel, bad for the Gulf states, and bad for the United States." Danon added that President Donald Trump has been signaling for weeks that he wants to conclude negotiations and moved too quickly, allowing Iran to improve its position — but cautioned that a final decision has not been reached, only a framework for continued talks.

01 · THE DISPATCH

Israeli Ambassador to the UN Danny Danon delivered a sharp critique of the emerging US-Iran framework in comments published Wednesday morning. Danon described the prospective deal as very bad for Israel, the Gulf states, and the United States, and argued that President Trump's public eagerness to conclude the talks has weakened Washington's hand, allowing Iran to improve its negotiating position over recent weeks.

Danon, however, noted that the process has not reached a final decision — only a framework for further negotiations has been set. The remarks align with a growing chorus of criticism from Israeli and American commentators. As The Zioneer reported earlier this week, analyst Amit Segal (N12) described the emerging deal as worse than the 2015 JCPOA, and former US National Security Advisor John Bolton called the framework "very bad" for America.
