A senior official in the US administration said, describing the upcoming announcement – during a conference call – that the agreement will expand the long-term security relationship between the United States and Israel.
“This declaration is very important and includes a commitment to never allow Iran to acquire a nuclear weapon and to confront its destabilizing activities, particularly threats to Israel,” he added.
Biden arrived in Israel yesterday, Wednesday, on his first trip to the Middle East since taking office in early 2021, and he will hold talks with Israeli leaders today, and he will meet Palestinian leaders in the occupied West Bank on Friday and hold talks in Saudi Arabia with leaders of the leaders of the Gulf Cooperation Council in addition to Egypt, Iraq and Jordan.
Commenting on the visit of the US president, Iranian President Ibrahim Raisi said yesterday that his country is carefully monitoring developments in the region, and will not lose sight of any movement in it, stressing that his country has not abandoned the nuclear agreement, and that the policy of maximum pressure has not achieved its goals.
He added that they have repeatedly told the Americans that Iran will respond firmly to the slightest move targeting its territorial integrity, noting that Washington’s efforts in the region will not achieve security for Israel.
Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Nasser Kanaani also called on the United States to stop efforts to form a regional alliance and respect the sovereignty of the countries of the region, stressing that the countries supporting Israel bear responsibility for any illegal Israeli action against his country.
