Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has described overthrowing the current government in Iran as his country’s main task. He said Tehran would seek to restore its nuclear programme even if it were weakened.
Globalinfo.az reports that Netanyahu made the remarks during a speech at the opening ceremony of the new academic year at Tel-Hai University.
“We must complete the process of eliminating the Iranian regime. This is our main goal,” the Israeli prime minister said.
He said the Islamic Republic of Iran remains a source of threat even in a weakened state.
Netanyahu claimed that as long as the current government in Iran remains in place, it will seek to restore activities aimed at developing nuclear weapons, as well as groups made up of its allies.
The Israeli prime minister also noted that overthrowing the government in Iran could help eliminate the threat posed by Lebanon’s Hezbollah group.
