Israel: Iran sanctions haven’t worked

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu accused Iran of being the most irresponsible country in the world and said sanctions against Tehran over its nuclear programme “haven’t worked.”

“Iran has been exposed for being the most irresponsible power on earth today. The one that exports terror with abandon is murdering people and breaking all the rules,” Netanyahu told reporters during a one-day visit to Cyprus. “For such a regime to have nuclear weapons is something of enormous concern for the United States and for Israel,” he said.

He was speaking after Israel accused Iran of unleashing a terror campaign in world capitals following three explosions in Bangkok on Tuesday and attacks on Israeli embassy staff in India and Georgia on Monday.
