JERUSALEM (AP) Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu took to Twitter on Friday to keep up pressure on Western powers over negotiations with Iran on its contested nuclear program and to warn against rushing into a "bad deal."
In his latest salvo against making concessions to Iran, Netanyahu's Twitter account featured a cartoon-like ad that detailed what he said the pending agreement included.
"The proposal enables Iran to develop atomic bombs and build long-range missiles to reach the U.S. and Europe," it read. "Iran is getting everything and giving nothing."
Netanyahu has been increasingly vocal in recent days about his opposition to a potential deal between six Western powers and Iran that would lift some sanctions while still leaving Iran with uranium-enrichment capabilities. Netanyahu has said he utterly rejects the brewing agreement and has been lobbying American allies in Congress to keep up sanctions.
The approach has strained relations with U.S. President Barack Obama's administration, which has asked Congress to hold off sanctions while negotiations are underway.
