By Iran’s FM for the audience of one. “Failed Biden team” and “Netanyahu is now dictating what President Trump can and cannot do in his diplomacy with Iran.”

Seyed Abbas Araghchi @araghchi

Israel’s fantasy that it can dictate what Iran may or may not do is so detached from reality that it hardly merits a response. What is striking, however, is how brazenly Netanyahu is now dictating what President Trump can and cannot do in his diplomacy with Iran.
