Israel: 84% enrichment means it’s now or never to stop Iran

“It is now or never” to stop Iran, Israel’s National Security Adviser Tzachi Hanegbi said Monday in a public interview.

Initially, there were those who believed Iran’s uranium enrichment could be for civilian use, Hanegbi said, but the fact that Tehran has enriched uranium at 84%, which is only used for weapons production, leaves no doubt as to its motives.

The two countries are on the same page now, “more than ever,” he said.

“The United States was reluctant for a very long time to accept our bottom line,” Hanegbi said. When the Obama Administration signed the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action in 2015, otherwise known as the Iran deal, along with five other world powers, Israel felt like it had failed, he explained. 


Former US president Donald Trump agreed with Israel and exited the deal in 2018. US President Joe Biden had initially sought to revive it but has since concluded that it is not possible to do so.
