Israeli ambassador to UN: Pressure on Iran needs to increase
None
Israel's Ambassador to UN Ron Prosor addressed the Security Council following the latest round of talks with Iran. "The Iranian economy is crumbling under the weight of crippling sanctions. And this pressure is getting results," Prosor said.
Prosor said the world is in a critical moment in which any relief on the pressure on Tehran would only allow it to recover and get back on its feet, thus the pressure should be tightened until a final decision is made, saying "any sort of partial deal will be completely ineffective in containing the Iranian threat."
