World leaders rushed to endorse US President Donald Trump’s proposed agreement with Iran, with the leaders of France, Britain, Germany, Italy, the United Nations, Qatar, and other regional powers praising the framework as a historic diplomatic breakthrough.
UN Secretary-General António Guterres hailed the agreement as a critical step toward ending the conflict, while European leaders pledged to help secure the Strait of Hormuz, support implementation of the deal, and advance negotiations over Iran’s nuclear program.
In Jerusalem, however, the reaction was dramatically different. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu convened an emergency security cabinet meeting as ministers warned the agreement leaves Iran’s ballistic missile program, terror proxies, and regional influence virtually untouched. Senior Israeli officials fear the deal relieves pressure on Tehran without dismantling the threats that triggered the conflict, exposing a widening gap between Israel and much of the international community.
