Israel welcomes EU sanctions on Iran as 'necessary steps'

JERUSALEM, Nov 19, 2024 (BS/AFP) - Israel's Foreign Minister Gidon Saar on 
Tuesday praised the European Union's decision to widen sanctions on Iran, 
calling it "necessary" to combat the threats from Iran.

In a post on X, Saar wrote that the fresh EU sanctions announced on Monday, 
imposed over Iran's support for Russia's invasion of Ukraine, which Iran 
denies, were "necessary steps in the international community's fight against 
the Iranian threat, which constitutes the greatest danger to the security and 
stability of the Middle East, Europe, and the entire world."
