Biden REMOVES some Iran sanctions imposed by Trump - including unfreezing $29B in bank accounts overseas - in bid to return to Obama-era deal that three negotiators have resigned over
2022-02-07
  • [Daily Mail UK] The Biden administration on Friday restored a sanctions waiver to Iran

  • Indirect talks between the United States and Iran on returning to the 2015 nuclear agreement has entered the final stretch

  • One official said it was not a signal Washington was reaching an understanding to return to the deal formally known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action

  • Waivers allowed foreign companies to carry out non-proliferation work to make it harder for Iranian nuclear sites to be used for weapons development

  • Waivers were rescinded by the United States in 2019 and 2020 under former President Donald Trump, who pulled out of the nuclear agreement

  • The United States and Iran have held eight rounds of indirect talks in Vienna since April aimed at reinstating the pact that lifted sanctions against Tehran

  • There has been no formal announcement on when the ninth round would start, but expectations intensified that it could be next week

  • After Trump pulled the United States out of the deal in 2018 and reimposed harsh sanctions, Iran gradually started violating the pact's nuclear curbs

  • Western diplomats now worry that its nuclear advancement leaves a very narrow window of time to return to the deal

#7  At least with Magoo we know that Ron Klain is pulling the strings. Kackala can't even keep a chief of staff longer than it takes her to burnish a new pair of knee pads, so we've no idea who's calling the shots

#5  I get tired of news articles slipping digs at Trump into the “news”
Trump left the unratified memorandum because Iran was violating the “agreement “ not the other way around
The mullahs ever ever intended to abide by any piece of paper that limits their ability to obtain a nuclear weapon
There “negotiations” have been a stall from the beginning
