Opposition MK Avigdor Liberman (Yisrael Beiteinu) said Sunday that the emerging U.S.-Iran agreement strengthens Tehran and its control over the Middle East. He called the accord a 'diplomatic disaster' and argued Israel must establish a deterrence equation: destroy Iranian infrastructure in response to any Iranian attack on Israel, according to senior Israeli political sources.
Opposition MK Avigdor Liberman (Yisrael Beiteinu) spoke out Sunday evening against the emerging US-Iran agreement, which senior sources described as strengthening Tehran's regional standing. Liberman called the accord a 'diplomatic disaster' and demanded that Israel adopt a clear deterrence equation: any Iranian attack on Israel must be met with the destruction of Iranian infrastructure. The remarks come amid a wave of Israeli criticism of the US-Iran framework, which several Israeli security and political figures have denounced as a 'sin' or 'historic mistake.' As The Zioneer reported over the past week, opposition leader Naftali Bennett and other senior officials have voiced similar concerns, warning that the deal risks dragging Israel into wars of attrition while providing Iran with sanctions relief without limits on its nuclear program or proxy network. The exact timeline of negotiations remains unclear, and whether Liberman's statement reflects a coordinated opposition stance or an individual position is not yet established.
