Netanyahu Criticizes EU Leaders for Helping Iran Circumvent U.S. Sanctions
(Prime Minister's Office) Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Sunday: "In Tehran, in Baghdad, in Beirut, people are taking to the streets. They are being slaughtered by the hundreds....In Baghdad, Iran's cronies have killed hundreds of Iraqis." "And while the people of the Middle East bravely stand up to Iran and its henchmen...countries in Europe are working to bypass U.S. sanctions against Iran." "While the Iranian regime is killing its own people, European countries rush to support that very murderous regime. While Iran bombs Saudi Arabia's oil installations, while Iran rushes to enrich uranium for nuclear weapons, European countries rush to appease Iran with even more concessions." "These European countries should be ashamed of themselves. Have they learned nothing from history?" "They are enabling a fanatic terrorist state to develop nuclear weapons and ballistic missiles, thereby bringing disaster to themselves and upon everyone else." "Now is the time to ratchet up the pressures on Iran, not to lessen them."
