Former Israeli national security advisor on US reimposing Iran sanctions
(5 Nov 2018) A former national security adviser to Israel claimed newly restored US sanctions against Iran are aimed at bringing Iran to the negotiating table - a goal he said Israel shares with the US. The goal of the sanctions is not that the Iranian people will suffer but to bring the regime to renegotiate an agreement relating to its nuclear military plan, Yaakov Amidror, Senior Fellow at the Jerusalem Institute for Strategic Studies (JISS) said. Amidror said that the economic consequences of the sanctions will have political implications for the war in Syria. If they have the money, and they continue to build this independent war machine, this stabilisation in the area will be very fragile, he told The Associated Press. Amidror also dismissed Iranian claims of an Israeli cyber-attack against the Islamic Republic's communication infrastructure, saying it was in the interest of Iran to portray themselves as victims under cyber attacks and other attacks. Israel's defense minister Avigdor Lieberman welcomed the sanctions on Monday, saying they will deal a critical blow to Iran's military presence around the Middle East. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and defense minister Avigdor Lieberman have both praised US President Donald Trump's decision to restore sanctions against Iran. Israel has been a fierce opponent of the 2015 Iran nuclear deal from which the US unilaterally withdrew this year, claiming the deal didn't rein in Iran's regional military activities. The deal was signed by China, France, Germany, Russia, Britain as well as the United States. The sanctions end all economic benefits America had granted Tehran for its 2015 nuclear deal with world powers, though Iran for now continues to abide by the accord that saw it limit its enrichment of uranium. While at the moment not threatening to resume higher enrichment, Iranian officials in recent months have made a point to warn the controversial process could resume at any time, faster than before.
