FT: The US will not join Israel in retaliating against Iran
The US will not join Israel in striking Iran in response to the October 1 rocket attack. The newspaper reports this Financial Times (FT) citing sources.
“US and Israeli officials are discussing the possibility of Israeli strikes on military installations and energy infrastructure. The US representative said that Washington does not intend to participate in the strikes,” the publication quotes the source as saying.
Earlier, the European Union (EU) admitted that they could have little influence on Israel’s decisions to respond to Iran’s attack. According to FT sources, there are no guarantees that Israel will refrain from attacks on Iranian oil or nuclear infrastructure, contrary to requests from several Western countries.
