The head of the Israeli Defense Forces, Aviv Kohavi, said on 26th that the Israeli military is reformulating its strategy to confront Iran and said that it is a mistake for the United States to return to the contents of the nuclear deal with Iran, while he believes that there is a high probability that Iran will suddenly decide to quickly build up its nuclear weapons capability, and that Israel must then be prepared.
According to Reuters, Cohawi said in a speech at Tel Aviv University’s Institute for National Security Studies that “from an operational and strategic point of view, returning to the 2015 nuclear deal, or signing a similar agreement with slight improvements, is a wrong and bad option. “, and Reuters analysis, this is a signal to U.S. President Joe Biden to send a more rigorous diplomacy with Iran, the Israeli military rare to the U.S. political decisions to make such statements, there should be prior approval by the Israeli government.
Reuters pointed out that former U.S. President Donald Trump unilaterally announced in the White House in 2018 that he was withdrawing from the nuclear deal and reimposing tough sanctions on Iran, a move welcomed by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who had previously warned that Iran was very likely to develop nuclear weapons after the expiration of the nuclear deal. The U.S. has a long way to go before it can return to the nuclear deal, and Washington needs to see that Iran complies with the agreement, said Antony Blinken, who was just confirmed as secretary of state last week.
In response to the U.S. withdrawal from the agreement, Iran has continued to expand its initiatives in violation of the nuclear agreement, Cohave believes that Iran has always denied the development of nuclear weapons on these initiatives, such behavior proves that Iran may suddenly decide to quickly build nuclear weapons capabilities, he said, “Based on these basic analysis, I have instructed the Israeli Defense Ministry to prepare several action plans to avoid a real situation . Of course, the final implementation is up to the government leaders, but these action plans must be prepared first.
