Lapid on Congress Support for Iran Deal: It's Netanyahu's Fault

Yesh Atid chairman MK Yair Lapid on Tuesday evening blasted Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu, after it was reported that U.S. President Barack Obama secured the support of 41 Senators for the Iran nuclear deal, thus preventing a vote on a Republican-backed resolution to keep sanctions against Iran in place and reject the deal.

Lapid blamed Netanyahu and his vocal opposition to the Iran deal for the majority in Congress, saying, “All of Netanyahu’s theories crashed and we found out that he was wrong all along.”
