U.S. Vice President JD Vance argued in a Fox News appearance that the emerging U.S.-Iran agreement will also be good for Israel, which he called a 'good partner.' General Keane, interviewed on the same program, attacked the deal. A group of American commentators and figures across the political spectrum are demanding the full text be made public, which remains classified, according to Israel Hayom.
Overnight, U.S. Vice President JD Vance continued his media tour promoting the emerging U.S.-Iran agreement. In an interview on Fox News, Vance argued that the deal would benefit Israel, calling the Jewish state a 'good partner.' His remarks come as the administration faces growing domestic pressure to release the full text of the agreement, which has not been made public.
General Jack Keane, a former U.S. Army vice chief of staff, appeared on the same program and criticized the deal. Separately, commentators including Mark Levin and others from both sides of the political spectrum are demanding transparency, according to Israel Hayom's Ariel Kahana.
As The Zioneer reported yesterday, Vance has said the U.S. speaks directly with Iran and that some in Israel 'very much like' the deal. The agreement is expected to be signed in Geneva on Friday, though the full text remains confidential. The administration has promised to publish the text this week but has not yet done so.
