Ian Bremmer: If Iran Doesn’t Return to Negotiations, We Can Expect the U.S. Will ‘Directly’ Assist Israel in Attacks on Their Nuclear Facilities

‘I think that Trump would accept sitting down yet again with the Iranians, for a sixth time’

EXCERPT:

BREMMER: “The U.S. is involved. The U.S. is, of course, the principal external military supporter of Israel. It’s also providing real-time intelligence. And None of that is going to be cut off or suspended, as it was briefly with Ukraine, for example, despite this war. So, I mean, clearly, the Americans are waist-deep, neck-deep. What the Americans have not done is directly attacked Iran. And what President Trump is doing very clearly at the G7 today is, he is warning the Iranians that that will come if they are not going to now take a last possible chance for a negotiation. I think that Trump would accept sitting down yet again with the Iranians for a sixth time. But if that happens and it doesn’t pan out, then you’re going to see the Americans either directly or providing the materiel to the Israelis directly that would allow for this critical attack against the deep underground nuclear capabilities that Iran has that Israel can’t take out by themselves in Fordow. One way or another, that’s where we’re going if the Iranians do not back down.”
