Netanyahu: Israel will ‘not allow’ nuclear-armed Iran
JERUSALEM, May 8, 2019 (BSS/AFP) – Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin
Netanyahu vowed Wednesday not to allow Iran to acquire nuclear arms after the
Islamic republic said it would abandon limits on its nuclear activities
agreed in a 2015 deal.
“This morning on my way here I heard that Iran intends to continue its
nuclear programme,” Netanyahu said at a ceremony on Israel’s annual day of
remembrance for its war dead.
“We shall not allow Iran to obtain a nuclear weapon.”
