US Senator Lindsay Graham reveals what Arab leaders said "secretly" about Iran

The U.S. senator said Arab leaders had told him privately that they would insist that they be allowed to enrich uranium at the same levels that the international community allows Iran.

In a report by The Times of Israel during his visit to Jerusalem, South Carolina Republican Sen. Lindsay Graham said Tuesday that the region may one day wake up to uranium enrichment plans all across the Middle East.

The Republican senator met with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who described the Republican senator as a "great friend," saying, "No one has done more for Israel than you."

Graham agreed with the views of Israel and several Arab Gulf states regarding the lack of trust in the Iranian nuclear program, noting that if "the world speaks with one voice and confronts Iran," the race for nuclear weapons in the region can be avoided.

He said, "Tehran should feel more pain because of its misconduct" regarding uranium enrichment, which has reached record levels recently.

Iran and the United States have entered into indirect negotiations in the Austrian capital Vienna, with the aim of rescuing the nuclear deal from which former President Donald Trump withdrew in 2015, an agreement that Israel publicly opposes.

The nuclear agreement signed in 2015 between Iran and the major powers stipulates that Tehran will be allowed to enrich uranium with a purity of no more than 4 percent in exchange for the removal of economic sanctions on the country.

Iran, however, gradually violated the agreement after the United States unilaterally withdrew and raised uranium enrichment levels to 60 percent.

In addition, the prominent US legislator stressed that in the United States there are bipartisan concerns about the Iranian nuclear program and Tehran's support for "terrorist" groups in the region.

Graham says he and Democratic Sen. Robert Menendez will post a statement in the Washington Post calling for an alternative to the nuclear deal.

"The French position is that Iran and the Arabs can get all the nuclear energy they want from an international fuel bank, without allowing them to enrich their countries," he explained.

He noted that the Israeli politicians he met were "very impressed" with the idea, and said that he and Mendez would pass the idea on to the Biden administration.

Graham adds: "Iran seems capable of being the largest state sponsor of terrorism in the world, and nothing deters it," he added: "The neutralization of Hamas and Hezbollah will take place in the absence of Iranian support."

The United States, the European Union and other Western countries have Hamas, which controls the Gaza Strip and Hezbollah in Lebanon, on their terror list.

"When it comes to threats to state security in Israel, all roads lead to Tehran," Graham continued.
