Opponents of agreement in Tel Aviv show concern regarding Israel’s security.
Some security officials of the Zionist regime described Saudi Arabia’s request for uranium enrichment in exchange for the normalization of relations with Tel Aviv as a “complicated” and “dangerous for Israel’s security” issue and demanded to deal with it.
Zionist media today (Saturday, August 12) pointed to the reactions of the opponents of the normalization agreement with Saudi Arabia in Tel Aviv and reported that security officials say that uranium enrichment is a “very complicated” request from the Saudis.
According to the report of the “I24” website, after “Yair Lapid”, the leader of the opposition coalition in the Knesset, expressed his opposition to the Saudi Arabia peace agreement, which includes the development of civilian nuclear weapons, the Likud party attacked him, but It became clear that some political circles in Tel Aviv agree with Lapid.
Channel 13 of the Zionist regime announced in a report of the association with Lapid: Lapid’s statements have a great impact and some security officials who have been in senior positions in the past and not for a long time, have similar opinions to the leader of the opposition in the Knesset.
A political official from Tel Aviv, who has been following Lapid’s positions and statements, said in this regard: On the one hand, I believe that Lapid does not know much about this matter; He does not know what is really going on. Nevertheless, the Saudi side’s demand for uranium enrichment is not a complex demand; We are looking for solutions to deal with it.
I24 wrote in another part of its report: Considering Lapid’s statements and the reaction of the prime minister’s party, the cabinet officials have reduced their enthusiasm for the agreement. Now they say that there are consultations and they will continue in the coming days and weeks, but there is no significant progress in Israel.
In a meeting with members of the Democratic Party from the US Congress who had traveled to occupied Palestine, Lapid said: He is against the agreement that includes uranium enrichment in Saudi Arabia and considers this issue a threat to Israel’s security.
After this, Zionist media such as Channel 13 quoted an Israeli official as saying that Lapid’s statements could prevent the US Congress from agreeing to a possible agreement with Saudi Arabia due to concerns about Israel’s security.
I24 channel wrote about the positions of the American representatives: In order to approve the agreement with Saudi Arabia, the majority vote of 66 senators out of 100 senators is needed. But in the current situation, just raising the issue of Saudi Arabia in the Congress has caused enough opposition and will not allow the votes to reach the required majority. However, when we talk about Israel, the number of potential supporters increases from 70 to 80 members.
In the final part of its report, this Zionist network stated: Claiming that this agreement harms Israel’s security will once again reduce the number of its supporters below the required level; If Lapid, security officials, and the Israeli military continue to oppose Saudi uranium enrichment, this will cause more problems in moving the talks forward.
Benjamin Netanyahu, the Prime Minister of the Zionist regime, on Monday, August 7th, during an interview about the deepening of relations between Tel Aviv and Riyadh, in reference to what is described in the media as Saudi demands for normalization with this regime, emphasized: I am not ready [for this agreement ] to offer concessions that would endanger Israel’s security; I don’t, but I believe there is enough room to discuss the possibilities.
The Zionist newspaper “Ma’ariv” also wrote in a report on Tel Aviv’s political summaries regarding the agreement: “The contacts and consultations between the United States and Saudi Arabia are insufficient and far from positive results for real and advanced negotiations.”
In the coming days, the Prime Minister of the Zionist regime will send “Ron Dermer”, the minister of strategic affairs of his cabinet and former ambassador to Tel Aviv and Washington, to Washington to talk with American officials about a possible normalization agreement with Saudi Arabia.
