The move that worries Israel: "If this is the deal signed - Iran will profit hugely"

Iran researcher Danny Citrinowicz said on 103FM that the emerging agreement between the US and Iran, mediated by Oman, is expected to grant Tehran control over the Strait of Hormuz and economic relief, and constitutes a major victory for the Iranians. He noted that the agreement would push away a confrontation between Iran and the US, which Israel desires, and would return the parties to negotiations on the nuclear issue. He emphasized the influence of the Gulf states on the US, in contrast to Israel's waning influence, and said that any agreement would strengthen the Iranian regime, but a good nuclear deal could prevent Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons.

In an interview with 103FM, Iran researcher Danny Citrinowicz assessed that the emerging agreement between the US and Iran, mediated by Oman, is expected to grant Tehran significant achievements, including de facto control over the Strait of Hormuz and economic relief. According to him, the Iranians will control all ships entering the strait, and exit will be with their knowledge. He noted that this depends on the American willingness to lift the naval blockade and ease oil sales. Citrinowicz said that such an agreement would push away a confrontation between Iran and the US, a confrontation that Israel desires, and would return the parties to negotiations on the nuclear issue. He emphasized the influence of the Gulf states, led by Saudi Arabia, Oman, and Qatar, on the American administration, in contrast to Israel's waning influence. He added that the visit of the Saudi defense minister to Washington and the call between the Qatari emir and Trump pushed Trump to give another chance to negotiations. Citrinowicz argued that any agreement would strengthen the Iranian regime, contrary to Israeli interests, but a good nuclear deal could prevent Iran from advancing toward nuclear weapons. He assessed that an Israeli strike on Iran would not topple the regime, would severely harm it, and would lead to an uncontrolled rise in oil prices, a price Trump is not willing to pay.
