When US President Joe Biden took office in 2021, he believed he had a simple idea for resolving, or at least postponing, any nuclear crisis with Iran until late 2025, meaning it would not be an issue during his first term.
The strategy was a return to the 2015 nuclear deal known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) under the same principles of sanctions relief and money for the Islamic Republic to freeze or delay its progress toward a nuclear weapon for a certain number of years.
About three years into Biden’s administration, the strategy is scuttled.There has been no deal with Tehran, and US officials recently suggested there will be none before the next US presidential election.
An informal deal struck over the summer that led to the return of American hostages held by Iran and the ayatollah’s proxies halting attacks on US troops in the Middle East – in exchange for partial sanctions relief to the Islamic Republic to the tune of $6 billion – also fell apart.
