sraeli foreign minister, Israel Katz, called on Thursday for a Western-Arab alliance headed by the US against Iran, in order to curb its missile development and “aggression”.
This call came following a letter sent by France, Germany and the UK to UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres, warning that “Iran’s developments of nuclear-capable ballistic missiles” violates a UN Security Council resolution endorsing the 2015 Iran nuclear deal.
France, Germany & the UK to the UN Sec-General: Iran is developing nuclear-capable missiles in breach of the nuclear agreement. The next step must be an effective military threat of a Western-Arab coalition led by the US to deter Iranian aggression. These are critical moments.
