Mossad chief to visit D.C. as Israel ramps up pressure on U.S. over Iran deal

WASHINGTON, 29 August 2022, (TON): A senior Israeli official told reporters “Mossad director David Barnea will visit Washington next week for talks on the emerging deal to restore the Iran nuclear agreement.”

Why it matters: Barnea is the most hawkish official on Iran within the Israeli security establishment and intelligence community.

The organization he leads is highly respected in Washington and cooperates closely with the CIA.

State of play: The U.S. and Iran have moved much closer to a deal to restore the 2015 nuclear accord in recent weeks, but a few key Iranian demands remain unresolved.
