According to Iran specialist Sébastien Regnault, Israel in reality directs the pace of the Iranian issue and regularly presents the West with a fait accompli. The United States and, to a lesser extent, the Europeans thus act as “useful idiots” for Israeli interests in the region. He explains that there was progress last year between American and Iranian negotiators. Benjamin Netanyahu then provoked the “twelve-day war”, which led to the breakdown of discussions. Today, with an agreement close, Israel has managed to convince Donald Trump to launch an attack.

For Sébastien Regnault, Israel’s objective is not limited to preventing Iran from obtaining a nuclear bomb. The challenge is also to prevent the economic opening of the country. Because Iran has considerable potential: a highly educated population, open to the world and eager to develop its economy. According to him, if the country opens up, it will become one of the world’s great economic powers in five to ten years.
