Vance Says Israel Will Eventually Back Emerging US-Iran Deal
Vice President JD Vance says the Trump administration is confident Israel will eventually support a developing US-Iran agreement, even as Israel says it is not a party to the deal and has not seen the full text.
US Vice President JD Vance said Monday that he believes Israel will eventually join the emerging US-Iran deal, as Washington and Tehran prepare for another round of nuclear talks on Friday.
The talks are expected to follow the formal signing of a memorandum of understanding in Switzerland. The text of the MOU has not yet been released.
Vance said the agreement would make Israel and the wider region safer, arguing that public concern is being driven by “misinformation” in both Iranian and Israeli media.
“What we know is this agreement is going to make Israel safer; it’s going to make the entire region safer,” Vance said.
The deal reportedly includes a 60-day extension of the current ceasefire, reopening the Strait of Hormuz, and further negotiations over Iran’s nuclear program.
Vance said removing uranium from Iran and allowing IAEA inspections are a “core part” of the arrangement.
Israel Says It Is Not Part Of The Deal
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Israel is not currently a party to the memorandum and does not yet know all of its details.
Israeli officials and opposition figures have raised serious concerns that the deal could limit Israel’s freedom to act against Iran-backed threats, especially Hezbollah in Lebanon.
Netanyahu said Israeli forces will remain in the southern Lebanon buffer zone for as long as necessary, stressing that Israel resisted Iranian pressure to withdraw.
Iran Links Deal To Hezbollah And Lebanon
Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi warned that any Israeli strike in Lebanon or continued Israeli presence there would be viewed by Tehran as a violation of the interim agreement.
Araghchi described the sides as the US and Israel on one side, and Iran and Hezbollah on the other.
That statement highlights the core danger for Israel: Iran is openly treating Hezbollah as part of its regional front, while trying to use diplomacy to restrict Israel’s defensive operations.
The full text of the agreement may be released before Friday, according to Vance, though the administration has so far held back the details.
