‘Semi-irrational attachment’: Biden still seeking Iran nuke deal with no fallback plan

JTN:

The Biden administration is leaving the door open to a nuclear deal with Iran that would provide the regime with a windfall of cash even as it kills anti-government protesters at home and helps fuel Russia’s war machine in Ukraine with lethal drones, according to experts who spoke to Just the News.

“There’s nothing in the administration’s foreign policy behavior to say there’s been a change,” said Benham Ben Taleblu, a senior fellow at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies. “Their response to the protests and the drones is good and welcome, but everything continues to be defined by the nuclear deal.”

Since the 2020 presidential campaign, President Biden and his senior advisers have made reviving the 2015 nuclear deal, which placed temporary curbs on Iran’s nuclear program in exchange for lifting large-scale sanctions on the regime, a top priority. Former President Trump withdrew the U.S. from the accord — formerly called the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, or JCPOA — in 2018. MORE
