ISRAEL'S ANGER

However, just hours after the news of the agreement broke out, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, a long-time critic of the deal, slammed on Tuesday the nuclear agreement as a "historic mistake."

"The deal is a bad mistake of historic proportions," Netanyahu said at the beginning of his meeting with visiting Dutch Foreign Minister Bert Koenders in Jerusalem on Tuesday morning.

"When you are willing to have an agreement at any price, this is the result ... In all fields in which they (P5+1) were supposed to prevent Iran from arming itself with nuclear weapons, far-reaching concessions were made," Netanyahu said.

He said that Iran will also receive hundreds of billions of dollars as a result of the removal of the economic sanctions, which, he claimed, could "fuel its terror machine" and the Islamic country's aggression across the Middle East.

Hitting back on some of his critics in Israel who slammed him for not preventing the agreement, Netanyahu said that he "couldn't prevent an agreement, as those negotiating were willing to make more and more concessions."

"We did make an obligation to prevent Iran from arming itself with nuclear weapons and we will stick with this commitment," he added, possibly alluding to a preemptive Israeli airstrike on Iranian nuclear facilities which he had hinted at in the past.
