Is Now Really the Time to Revive the Iran Nuclear Deal?
(The Dispatch) Charlotte Lawson - Jason Brodsky, a senior analyst at Iran International, said the Natanz explosion was "a message from Israel to the United States and the EU-3 that: 'We have a vote on the nuclear deal as well and we're not going to sit idly by while an agreement is negotiated in a European capital that directly affects our security.'" "The second message is of course to the Iranians: 'We're watching you and we're not bound by the nuclear deal.'" The Biden administration says its first priority is to restore the existing deal before following-on with additional negotiations to make it "stronger and longer." But "once they have sanctions relief, why would they negotiate further?" Brodsky asked. "I think the obsession with this deal among Europeans, and among some in the United States, has really been a detriment to a broader conversation on the Iran challenge," Brodsky explained.
