The decision of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to appoint National Security Adviser Meir Ben-Shabbat as his representative on the issue of contacts with the superpowers regarding the nuclear agreement with Iran and as an envoy to the issue was announced on Friday, by senior Israeli officials.

Convince the Americans not to return to the nuclear deal and even ran an aggressive media campaign in an attempt to position himself as responsible for the Iranian issue, however, Netanyahu finally decided to give the job to Ben Shabbat.

About a month ago, Defense Minister Bnei Gantz said he would not allow Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to bypass the defense establishment in talks with the Biden administration.

"I know the incoming senior government officials well, a large part of them worked for me when I was an IDF attaché in Washington and when I was chief of staff," Ganz said.

"The Biden administration is an Israel - friendly administration, and I am convinced that even on important issues such as Iran - I know I will find a sympathetic ear."



"I intend to make sure that no one thinks of interfering with our security of Israel with exercises and detours that endanger us, and to act to replace those who cannot be trusted with honest leadership that can be trusted to rebuild the country," he added.
