US official to travel to Israel to discuss Iran nuclear programme

Al Jazeera  

The visit comes as the eighth round of Iran nuclear deal talks is set to begin next week in Vienna. United States national security adviser, Jake Sullivan, will visit Israel this week for detailed discussions with Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett on Iran’s nuclear programme, a senior Biden administration official has said. “It will be a good opportunity to sit down face-to-face and talk about the state of the talks, the timeframe in which we are working and to re-emphasise that we don’t have much time.” Sullivan will be accompanied by the National Security Council’s Middle East director Brett McGurk and other US officials, and will also meet Palestinian President Mohammed Abbas in Ramallah in the occupied West Bank to discuss strengthening US relations with the Palestinians, the official said. Last week, a senior US official said Iran’s breakout time to producing enough highly enriched uranium for one nuclear weapon is now “really short” and alarming.
