(Jerusalem Post) Yonah Jeremy Bob - Former Israel National Security Council chief Maj.-Gen. (ret.) Yaakov Amidror warned Monday against the incoming U.S. administration wasting the sanctions leverage it has against Iran. He explained that President-elect Joe Biden will enter office with a major advantage. "It would be a huge mistake not to use this leverage made by the previous administration, only because it was built by the Trump administration." "If this administration will make it clear when coming in that it will not go back to square one - that when he [Biden] spoke about a new and stronger agreement, he meant they [Iran] will have to reconsider their whole policy, this might succeed. If, on the contrary, the next administration will [remove] the sanctions and say 'let's go back to the old agreement, and then we will negotiate a new one, taking care of all of the loopholes of the old agreement'...there is no chance."
