Israel refused to comply with the agreement between the United States and Iran

Israeli Minister of National Security Itamar Ben-Gvir said that his country is not obliged to comply with the provisions of the agreement between the United States and Iran, as it does not obey the American administration. He announced this on June 15 on the social network X (former. Twitter).

"The agreement of [American leader Donald] Trump is not obligated by Israel. The State of Israel is independent and sovereign, it is not subordinate to the United States," Ben-Gvir wrote.

He added that the country is grateful to the former US president, but at the same time "is not a banana republic." The minister explained that Israel is not a party to the agreement, which, according to him, does not take into account the security of the state and does not impose obligations on it.

"We cannot accept anything less than the complete destruction of the Hezbollah movement. We will not leave the territories that our troops have cleared of terrorist infrastructure," he stressed.

Pause: Why the US-Iran deal does not guarantee peace

The agreed memorandum will unblock the Strait of Hormuz, but will not solve the problems of the nuclear program and sanctions.

Pakistani Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif announced on June 14 that the agreement between the United States and Iran will be signed on June 19 in Switzerland. After intense negotiations, the parties managed to come to a common agreement: the fighting must be completed completely in all areas of the confrontation, including in Lebanon.

American Vice President Jay D. Vance said on the same day that the US-Iran deal, if followed, could radically change the Middle East for the next 50 years. As the politician noted, prosperity in the region will also mean lower energy prices for the American people.
