Turkish minister warns of Israeli sabotage risk to US-Iran deal

Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan says that technical issues remaining in the recently signed memorandum of understanding may not be quickly resolved, and cautioned that Israel could try to derail the process.

“These are important issues. It may not be easy to immediately resolve their technical details. We may see deadlocks from time to time. We need to be prepared for that,” Fidan told the Turkish Anadolu Agency.

“Secondly, of course, there is always an Israel waiting in the corner, ready to sabotage the process as soon as it finds the opportunity.”
