Israeli Foreign Minister: We will do everything in our power to stop Iran's nuclear program

The senators made clear that the Biden administration has an offer on the table, but that Iran is showing little willingness to re-establish the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), which has placed significant limits on its nuclear program in exchange for sanctions relief. .

The Chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, Bob Menendez, was not optimistic about the existence of such a deal, stressing that the US administration believes that it makes strategic sense to keep the offer on the table, but we do not see the way forward.

Accepting a new agreement, Menendez noted, is a divisive proposition within Iran's political establishment; What makes it difficult to revive the deal, he added: I think there is conflict inside Iran, so there is no clear way forward.

Senator Ben Cardin, a senior member of the Foreign Relations Committee, replied, "You just don't know what the Iranians are thinking...I think, at this point, it's not clear whether the Iranians want a deal or not."

He added: There are some differences within Iran itself. The United States has made a proposal, the ball is really in the Iranians' court.
