JERUSALEM, Israel—Iran could see a breakthrough in its nuclear nonproliferation negotiations with the United States, but “it’s up to them,” according to U.S. Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee.
Iran has “never ever been anything but clear in that their goal is the annihilation of Israel, and ultimately the annihilation of every free-thinking, free-living person on the planet,” Huckabee told The Daily Signal following remarks at the Jewish News Syndicate International Policy Summit in Jerusalem on Monday.
Steve Witkoff, U.S. special envoy to the Middle East, has now met with Iranian leaders three time in a series of talks over Iran’s nuclear program. A fourth round of talks is slated for Saturday.
The U.S. can reach a favorable agreement with Iran if Tehran agrees to “lay down any ambitions whatsoever for nuclear weaponry,” Huckabee said….
