Netanyahu: Iran Trying to "Blackmail" World by Violating Nuclear Deal
(AFP) "This week Iran openly violated the nuclear deal by increasing the stockpile of enriched uranium (to beyond that) allowed under the deal," Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Tuesday at an early reception in Jerusalem marking U.S. Independence Day. "They're hoping, that regime, that by violating the deal it will be able to blackmail the world into making concessions and reducing the economic pressure on it. We should do the exact opposite. Now is the time to increase the pressure. Now is the time for the European powers to follow America's lead and restore sanctions against Iran, just as they promised to do in the United Nations Security Council."
