Iran raises the stakes: Will America in the Biden era return to the nuclear deal?
Under the above heading, Anna Uranets wrote in Gazeta Rowe about the need for Biden and Europe to get rid of Trump’s legacy in the world and revive the nuclear deal with Iran.
The article reads: The European Union called on the Iranian authorities to return to fulfill their obligations under the nuclear deal, and promised to make every effort to bring the United States back to the negotiating table. Meanwhile, Iran announced the resumption of uranium enrichment to a purity of 20%, which is much higher than it was before 2015. This happened only a few weeks before Joe Biden’s inauguration and the transfer of power in the United States to the new administration. In fact, the president-elect has stated more than once that the agreement with Iran must be restored. Nevertheless, Donald Trump’s actions have a significant impact on the possibility of renewing the deal.
In this regard, the head of the European Security Department at the European Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Dmitry Danilov, told “Gazeta Ro”: “Now, of course, the stakes are great. Iran is, now, at the height of the militancy, which can be relegated to later.” Practically all calculations are carried out in a completely specific matrix of the change of power in the United States, and everyone, indeed, understands very well that it is not necessary to take into account what is the situation today, but rather the upcoming electoral period, that is, the next four years. Tehran is showing Biden the threshold that must be taken. For future management to start. “
“This is a fundamental issue, for the European Union. If the European Union wants to demonstrate its ability to survive in the system of international relations and in the field of international security, it must prove its success. In this case, success in the dialogue with the United States. The matter also concerns the transatlantic dialogue If the European Union does not succeed, it will be very difficult to say that the transatlantic dialogue and relations have been restored after Trump. Likewise, for Biden. It is quite clear that it is not enough for him to talk about getting rid of Trump’s legacy. He needs new anchors and restoring transatlantic relations. “.
As for the Islamic Republic, here too, restoring the nuclear deal is an attempt to save face. “For Iran, a new compromise solution, if reached, would be considered a victory.”
