Chairman Yoel Hasson of the Knesset Control Committee said Thursday that Ehud Barak's remarks earlier in the evening about a deal between Western powers and Iran show that Israel was not involved in talks about Iran's nuclear program. Barak said that the deal legitimizes the Tehran government's enrichment of uranium.

Hasson said Israel has to work for the future and it is a pity that Israel has become a country that nobody consults with regarding its business.
