Prospects for a successful conclusion of negotiations with Iran over a revived nuclear deal are “at best, tenuous,” the Biden administration’s chief envoy to the talks planned to tell Congress Wednesday.
In prepared testimony for delivery to the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, negotiator Robert Malley said that “as I speak to you today, we do not have a deal with Iran,” and the administration will continue to reject what it considers unreasonable demands from the Tehran government.
The Biden administration has not announced a decision in response to the Iranian demand. But Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett, in a series of statements on Twitter Tuesday, said that President Biden had confirmed to him in a telephone call late last month that he would “keep … the IRGC” on the list, “which is where it belongs.
. Both Qatar and Oman, which maintain good relations with both Iran and the United States, have also tried to mediate.Advertisement Repeating familiar administration talking points, Malley said that the negotiations were always limited to Iran’s nuclear program, with the hope that an agreement would lead to further discussions about Iran’s other activities, including terrorism, support for proxy forces in the region and development of ballistic missiles.
