TL;DR

Former US Vice President Mike Pence was asked whether he considers the new Iran deal a mistake, and replied that it is "much more than a mistake." The comment, reported by Asaf Rozentzweig (N12), signals strong opposition from a prominent conservative voice.

01 · THE DISPATCH

Former US Vice President Mike Pence, a prominent Republican and vocal critic of the current administration's Iran policy, offered a sharp assessment of the emerging nuclear deal with Iran. When asked by a reporter whether the agreement is simply a mistake, Pence replied: "It's much more than a mistake." The comment, reported Wednesday morning Jerusalem time by N12 journalist Asaf Rozentzweig, does not detail specific objections but aligns with Pence's longstanding position that a nuclear deal with Tehran is strategically dangerous for both the US and Israel. No further context or official statement from Pence's office has been released.
