“There was an opportunity to use diplomacy before military growth in Europe,” Latevet said. Both he and the Barns-country believe that the Israeli strike was designed to disrupt the efforts to revive the US Iran nuclear dialogue.
Hans Jacob Shindleer, senior director of the Counter Extremeism Project, told DW that the region is now “in a very Dangus escalation spiral,” with the risk of proceeding during the day.
“The current assessment is that Israel can only delay Iran’s nuclear program,” Lovat said.
