T. Belman. Israel never had “hopes of a serious deal”. I have read that Biden is even prepared to allow Russia to trade through this deal which completely upends the trade sanctions currently affecting Russia. Biden even has to forego pressuring Saudi Arabia and UAE to increase production as they are marching to Putin’s drummer.
So what is in this deal that impels it forward. Is it solely for the west to be able to sell things to Iran and for Iran to have the money to pay for such things and many other things like terrorism. Obviously, trade with Russia and Iran is more important than Ukraine or Israel to the west.
President Biden last year called for a renewal of the Iran nuclear talks aimed at reaching a new, “longer and stronger” agreement to prevent the ayatollahs from going nuclear. By all accounts the negotiations are going poorly for the U.S. . . . and for all nations that wish to see Iran’s nuclear and terrorist ambitions reined in.
But since—outrageously—the Iranians refuse to speak directly with U.S. representatives, our role is greatly diminished. We’re now relying largely on a Russian diplomat who has assumed a leading role in the Vienna negotiations.
