The Iranian threat is now at Europe’s gate,” President Herzog said during a visit to NATO headquarters in Brussels.
Israeli President Isaac Herzog today called on NATO members to toughen their stance on the Iranian regime, which is involved in supplying Russia with drones to use in its war against Ukraine.
“The crisis goes beyond Ukraine’s borders.
The Iranian threat is now at Europe’s gate,” President Herzog said during a visit to NATO headquarters in Brussels.
“The illusion of distance can no longer exist. NATO must adopt the toughest possible stance against the Iranian regime, primarily through economic, legal and political sanctions and a credible military deterrent,” he insisted after meeting the secretary general. of the North Atlantic Alliance Jens Stoltenberg.
“The Ukrainian people are bravely defending their homeland, and NATO allies and partners are helping to support their right to self-defense,” Stoltenberg said.
President Herzog’s visit is a sign of “deepening cooperation” between the alliance led by the United States and Israel, the Norwegian secretary-general added.
Herzog highlighted the strengthening of cooperation in cyber security, space, unmanned aerial vehicles and energy resilience.
He said the two sides are expected to sign a new agreement “in a few months, which extends the cooperation period and broadens its scope.”
Alliance members have been pressuring Israel to take a tougher stance toward Russia, but the Jewish state refuses to arm Kyiv, fearing a backlash from Moscow, which has a major role in Syria.
