Military Analyst Warns Any Iran Deal Could Leave Major Nuclear Gaps

Military commentator Amir Bohbot reacted Friday to reports and remarks by U.S. President Donald Trump saying an agreement with Iran could be signed in the coming days. Bohbot said he does not believe the Iranian regime will give up its nuclear program, calling that “the biggest danger” and warning of “a deal with big holes.”

He was responding to Trump’s statements about an expected deal, which have raised speculation about a possible breakthrough with Tehran. Bohbot’s main concern was that any accord would fail to eliminate Iran’s nuclear ambitions, leaving what he sees as the core threat untouched.

The comments came a day after Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu addressed the issue. According to Netanyahu’s statement, Trump had spoken with him Thursday evening about a developing memorandum of understanding with Iran that would open the way to negotiations. Although Israel is not a party to the memorandum, Netanyahu said he appreciated Trump’s commitment to ensuring that any final agreement would remove enriched material, dismantle enrichment infrastructure, limit missile production, and end Iran’s support for its regional terror proxies.
