Biden Administration Presses Allies Not to Confront Iran on Nuclear Program

MSN:

BERLIN—The Biden administration is pressing European allies to back off plans to rebuke Iran for advances in its nuclear program, even as it expands its stockpile of near-weapons-grade fissile material to a record level, according to diplomats involved in discussions.

The U.S. is arguing against an effort by Britain and France to censure Iran at the International Atomic Energy Agency’s member state board in early June, the diplomats said. The U.S. has pressed a number of other countries to abstain in a censure vote, saying that is what Washington will do, they said.

U.S. officials deny lobbying against a resolution.

The differences are emerging as Western officials’ concerns have deepened about Iran’s nuclear activities.

On Monday, the U.N. atomic-energy agency reported that Iran’s stockpile of 60% highly enriched uranium rose 20.6 kilograms to 142.1 kg as of May 11 from three months earlier, its highest level to date.

U.S. officials say that material could be converted into weapons-grade enriched uranium in a matter of days. It would then be enough to fuel three nuclear weapons. more

  1. former Sec of Defense, Robert Gates said, “Biden has been wrong on nearly every foreign policy decision for the past 40 years”… this man is too stupid to make decisions that could lead to WW3… Since almost every Democrat has supported him these past 3+ years…my recommendation would be to vote every Democrat out of office… Trump may not be perfect, but I know we were financially better off under his administration…

  2. What is this? The various Yuro governments have more sense than the Joe Biden’s gaggle of nitwits?

    Let us enjoy this moment…even as Joe The Sniffer and his gang are likely in an apoplectic melt down over it. Joe must be seeing millions in bribery money vanishing right in front of him.
