abides by the deal, but both sides will have to race against the clock and navigate a political minefield to reach that goal.Biden's first few months in officeIran's current president, Hassan Rouhani, threw his weight behind the 2015 agreement, known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action , and there's no guarantee the next Iranian president will be as open to cutting a deal.
But the sanctions have not dissuaded Iran from advancing its nuclear program. Iran has amassed 12 times the amount of low enriched uranium allowed under the agreement, exceeded enrichment levels set by the deal and introduced more centrifuges than permitted by the accord, according to the International Atomic Energy Agency.
Biden’s team are no strangers to the topic or to Iranian diplomats, as several of his advisers were deeply involved in the long negotiation that led to the 2015 agreement under President Barack Obama. Biden himself has met Iran’s foreign minister dozens of times. That experience could help speed up the diplomacy and improve the prospects for an agreement, former officials said.
"If we're going to negotiate the security of our part of the world, we should be there," the UAE's ambassador in Washington, Yousef Al Otaiba, said at a recent event organized by Tel Aviv University's Institute for National Security Studies. "From my point of view it would be crazy to rejoin the deal without getting something more out of it," said David Albright, an expert on Iran's nuclear program with the nongovernmental. "Whatever you think of Trump — and I didn't like that he left the deal — he generated a tremendous amount of leverage on Iran, and not to use that just seems crazy. In that sense it's a gift to Biden.
Biden already has vowed to lift the travel ban and said he would "make sure U.S. sanctions do not hinder Iran's fight against Covid-19."
Worked so well that Iran had violated it 3x by May 2016, causing Obama to fear imposing sanctions would cause Iran to pull out, destroying his legacy.
Thanks blue America. Thanks for the shiv in the back
Bad for Israel.
When the Muslim terrorists once again smell the fear and self loathing of the Democrats, and decide to attack New York City once again, will Americans rally for War like in 2001, or yawn and turn the channel because Liberals deserve it?
Will this mean jihadists are welcome to do what they do in America?
Yes, hurry and send planeloads of cash like 4 years ago....hurry
Not over until 12/14. Please don’t riot.
