Netanyahu criticizes prisoner swap agreement between US, Iran
ISTANBUL (AA) – Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Sunday criticized a US-Iran agreement to release around $6 billion worth of frozen Iranian assets in the South Korea Central Bank in exchange for a prisoner swap.
“Israel’s position is clear regarding agreements that won’t dismantle Iran’s nuclear infrastructure, won’t halt its nuclear activities, but instead will provide funding to terror elements sponsored by Tehran,” said Netanyahu in a written statement issued by his office.
Netanyahu added that Israel considers Iran’s nuclear program and the groups it is affiliated with in the region as the “number one national security threat.”
