On Iran, Hope Is Not a Strategy
(Washington Post) Josh Rogin - U.S. Special Envoy for Iran Robert Malley said Wednesday that the Biden team is working on a Plan B, given that the new Iranian leadership has shown no interest in returning to the talks in Vienna. "We have to prepare for a world...where Iran doesn't have constraints on its nuclear program and we have to consider options for dealing with that, even as we hope that we can get back to the deal....We have to deal with all options to address Iran's nuclear program if it's not prepared to come back into the constraints of 2016," Malley said. The Biden team must quickly decide - and then announce - what it actually intends to do to prevent Iran from ramping up its nuclear program. The U.S. needs to act before Iran reaches the point where Israel responds.
