Concerns are growing among Israeli government officials that Iran and the United States may reach an agreement to control the progress of Iran's nuclear program during ongoing negotiations.
For this very reason, as the Israeli state television reported in its news bulletin last night, Prime Minister Yair Lapid, Defense Minister Benny Gantz, Deputy Prime Minister Naftali Bennett are going to hold an emergency meeting today with the participation of the leadership of the armed forces and services security of the country. This assessment is in contrast to the prevailing opinion that was valid until recently in government circles and expressed by journalistic sources, that the negotiations would ultimately not have a happy ending. However, as a relevant report by the Israeli state television reported, in recent days the Iranian media controlled by the Tehran government tend to prepare the local public opinion that Iran intends to come to an agreement with the international community and in particular with the US in order to establish a framework of international control over the progress of the nuclear program.
According to government sources, cited by the state-run Israeli media, disagreements in the Iran-US negotiations center mainly on objections from the International Atomic Energy Agency, which has accused Tehran of deliberately disabling security cameras recording activity at certain Iranian nuclear facilities. . Nevertheless, the same Israeli sources are said to be concerned that these disputes tend to be overblown, according to relevant information they received from American and European actors.
At the same time, the Israeli state television reported in detail information presented in a related report by the Iranian news channel Iran International, which broadcasts by satellite from London, is funded by Saudi funds and expresses the positions of the Iranian opposition, that in the draft of the agreement promoted by the EU it is stipulated that , if the US pulls out of the deal again, international companies doing business with Iran will be exempt from any sanctions for a one-year grace period. According to Iran International, this term is considered very likely to be accepted by the US as long as President Joe Biden is in power.
From the Iranian side, it is a fact that in the last three twenty-four hours, the foreign-language pro-government mass media have increased the number of reports showing that government officials in Tehran are allegedly considering positively the proposals promoted by the European Union in order for the current negotiations to have a happy outcome.
