Top Biden administration officials and U.S. Senators crisscrossed the West Asia on Monday, seeking to assuage growing unease among Arab partners over America’s re-engagement with Iran and other policy shifts in the region.
The trips come as the U.S. and Iran, through intermediaries in Vienna, discuss a return to Tehran’s tattered 2015 nuclear deal with world powers that former President Donald Trump abandoned three years ago. The United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia and other Gulf allies, excluded from Obama-era nuclear negotiations, have repeatedly pressed for a seat at the table, insisting that any return to the accord must address Iran’s ballistic missile programme and support for regional proxies.
i think the best defense is a strong offense, they say. and we just really haven t seen that with this administration. i ve noted it before. with he can t really point to major policy shifts that this administration has been able to accomplish. so at the moment, we just kind of see them always being reactive to things. and they haven t given the american people to really anything else to really focus on. i do think it s spun out of control. and the folks who work for president trump are at the mercy of their principle and their principle does not want to face the music. very quickly, eli, pat sipiloni. two big onions i m told. help us understand his role in all of this. somebody said this is not the federalist paper when you look at the two paragraphs. the role he is occupying and how out of step that is. well, it is in step with what
