Sharon Concerned Over Renewed Iranian Nuclear Efforts

Arutz Sheva:
Prime Minister Ariel Sharon today expressed concerns over Iran’s renewed nuclear enrichment efforts. Addressing the need to cut NIS 650 from the nation’s defense spending, the prime minister stated the security of the nation and its citizens remains of paramount importance and we cannot permit situations “to reach the red line.”

We must take into consideration the recent developments in Iran,” he added.

Tehran earlier this week announced it was resuming nuclear enrichment efforts over the objections of the European community.
