(Israel Hayom) Ariel Kahana - According to new information obtained by Israel Hayom, several advisers to U.S. President-elect Joe Biden have been pushing for a new approach to the Iran nuclear deal that favors embracing some "maximum pressure" components. They further believe that adopting a conciliatory tone toward Iran would be counterproductive. Instead, they call for using the tough U.S. sanctions that have been imposed over the past several years as leverage against Iran so that it agrees to amend the nuclear deal. According to a person close to the transition team, the "new administration would like to engage in dialogue with Israel on the necessary changes that need to be introduced in the deal, but this discussion has to be held behind closed doors."
