Macron to Lapid: The nuclear deal with Iran must succeed
French President Emmanuel Macron stated, on Tuesday, that the JCPOA, a 2015 nuclear agreement between major nations and Iran, needs to be revived while taking "Israel" and other regional partners' interests into consideration.
During a joint press conference with Israeli Prime Minister Yair Lapid, Macron told reporters that "we have to defend this (nuclear) deal (with Iran). And take in account the interests of our friends in the area, primarily Israel."
Macron also claimed that there was "no alternative" to political dialogue to ease tensions between "Israel" and Palestinian authorities.
Ahead of the meeting, the Israeli PM said the meeting with Macron will be an opportunity for him to convince France to synchronize pressure on Iran by both "Israel" and the West.
It is worth noting that Israeli officials are expected to push that Iran must not be allowed to extend negotiations that were held recently in Qatar after a months-long break.
Earlier today, the Israeli occupation Prime Minister Yair Lapid issued a threat to Lebanon, urging the containment of Hezbollah in order to protect what it allegedly claims to be its right in the oil and gas assets in the Karish field.
Lapid spoke to the media before boarding a flight to Paris to meet with French President Emmanuel Macron and discuss with him matters pertaining to the Mediterranean Sea and Israeli fears of what he called Hezbollah's threats to their illegal activities in the Karish field. Lapid hopes to increase pressure on Lebanon through his French counterparts.
