"The historic Iran nuclear deal, negotiated by the Obama-Biden administration alongside our allies and other world powers, blocked Iran from getting a nuclear weapon. Yet Trump decided to cast it aside, prompting Iran to restart its nuclear program and become more provocative, bringing the region to the cusp of another disastrous war. If Tehran returns to compliance with the deal, President Biden would re-enter the agreement, using hard-nosed diplomacy and support from our allies to strengthen and extend it, while more effectively pushing back against Iran’s other destabilizing activities."

"The United States must rejoin the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action negotiated between Iran, China, France, Germany, Russia, the United Kingdom, and the United States. The US violated the JCPOA, informally known as the Iran Nuclear Agreement, unilaterally withdrawing from it and escalating sanctions. These actions were a unilateral escalation of conflict with Iran by the United States. If the US had lived up to the agreement and removed previous sanctions as was required, then the United States and Iran would be able to address their differences and regional and global problem issues by diplomacy instead of war. The JPCOA was working to stop nuclear proliferation as all parties, including the US State Department, agreed at the time Trump pulled out on his own."

"Yes. Iran has a right to peaceful, civilian nuclear technology under the terms of the Non-Proliferation Agreement. An agreement that helps create harmony is better than continued hostility."
