Experts Warn Against Quick Return to Iran Nuclear Deal
(Washington Post) Ishaan Tharoor - Suzanne Maloney of the Brookings Institution told a webinar last week that Tehran's strategy at present was aimed at goading the Biden administration quickly back into the nuclear deal. "The Biden administration should resist the temptation to be drawn into crisis diplomacy with the Iranians," she said. Maloney and other experts in Washington advocate a more measured approach that cools tensions without immediately lifting all of Trump's sanctions. "Tehran would be wrong to assume that [the] administration would hesitate to maintain or even intensify pressure on the Islamic Republic - this time in coordination with European allies - if it were to issue excessive demands," noted a report from the International Crisis Group.
