Biden Admin “Pleased” Europeans Dropped Nuclear Censure Plan Against Iran

Biden Admin “Pleased” Europeans Dropped Nuclear Censure Plan Against Iran

China joins the Biden White House in welcoming the European decision.

President Joe Biden’s administration is “pleased” that the European powers have dropped the plan to censure Iran at the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) meeting. Earlier this week, France spearheaded a European effort to condemn Iran’s recent nuclear activities at a summit hosted by the IAEA, the Vienna-based U.N. atomic watchdog.

“We are pleased with the outcome of the IAEA Board of Governors meeting with respect to Iran,” U.S. State Department spokesman Ned Price said, hoping to restart nuclear talks with Tehran following the European decision. “We will look forward with strong interest for Iran’s willingness to engage in a way that leads to credible, concrete progress,” Price added.

Since President Donald Trump left the White House, Iran has ramped up its enrichment of uranium, the key ingredient in a nuclear bomb, and hindered the IAEA inspectors from visiting its sites.

The Radio Free Europe0n Friday reported the Biden administration’s response:

U.S. State Department spokesman Ned Price on March 4 said Washington was “pleased” the Europeans withdrew the measure criticizing Iran, after Tehran reportedly gave some “encouraging signs” about the future of the landmark 2015 nuclear pact.

“We will look forward with strong interest for Iran’s willingness to engage in a way that leads to credible, concrete progress,” Price told reporters.

“We have stated very clearly that what we are prepared to do is to engage in constructive dialogue. That is the offer that’s been on the table,” Price said. (…)

France, Britain, and Germany had planned to introduce the resolution, with the support of the United States, denouncing Iran’s suspension of some IAEA inspections linked to the accord.

The Europeans dropped the plan amid efforts by IAEA chief Rafael Grossi to reach a compromise with Iran.

“We have decided to not present the resolution,” the German Foreign Ministry said. “Iran must now prove that it is serious in its wish to fully relaunch” the nuclear deal.

France, Britain, and Germany were set to table a resolution at this week’s IAEA meeting in Vienna to condemn Tehran’s decision to restrict the access of nuclear inspectors to the Iranian sites, media reports said.

“The nuclear tensions will lead us in the coming days to put forward a protest in the framework of the IAEA Board of Governors to regret this decision,” Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian said on Tuesday.

Given the Biden State Department’s response, it is worth asking if the White House played an active role in ‘convincing’ the Europeans to back off.

China, a key Iranian ally, joined the Biden administration in welcoming the European decision. Beijing “hailed the dropping of the resolution as an “opportunity … to create favorable conditions” for negotiations over the U.S.,” the Washington Examiner reported Thursday.

With President Trump out of office, the Biden administration is busy dismantling the sanctions placed on the Mullah regime since May 2018 following the U.S. withdrawal from the 2015 nuclear deal.

The Biden administration is replacing the outgoing administration’s “maximum pressure” campaign against Iran with an Obamaesque appeasement policy. Reversing President Trump’s decision, the White House last month revoked the enforcement of U.N. sanctions and international arms embargo on Iran.

With the rolling back of the sanctions, the Biden administration is bowing down to Iranian pressure to lift all U.S. sanctions.

President Biden “can announce and reassure us that all sanctions imposed after the [Obama-Kerry nuclear deal] would be lifted in less than one year and tell us to go and negotiate the process,” a senior adviser to Iran’s supreme leader told UK’s Financial Times on Friday.

As part of this future nuclear agreement with the Biden team, Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif has demanded $1 trillion in “reparations'” for the sanctions placed by President Trump.

    Press Release
    White House, Washington, DC
    SUBJ: President Joe Biden’s statement regarding International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) decision not to censure Iran.

    Um, where… I think… no… no, not there. What was the thing? C’mon man! The thing! I think it was. Dang. OK, I know, it was… no. Wait. Where am I? What was I… Maybe, no… Corn Pop. Co-o-o-o-rn p-o-o-o-pppp….

One would think Harris/Biden/Obama have secret mutual defense agreements. In the case of attack on Israel, Harris et al will support (covertly) Iran. Since the goal is to force Israel to “Palestinian” terms … this makes sense… especially if Israel knows of that.

Doesn’t it say in the Bible the End of Times come as a two state solution in Israel?

Iran plays Biden like a fiddle.

    Biden fiddles while the world burns. But as long as they keep putting aside “10% for the big guy” he’ll be happy.

      “Biden fiddles while the world burns.”

      Yeah and he’s been warned about that repeatedly. At least a dozen times a day Dr. Jill is heard to say, “Joe, stop fiddling with that.”

    Arminius in reply to Ben Kent. | March 7, 2021 at 2:00 pm

    Iran doesn’t have to play Biden. They’re on the same side. Recall the pretend P5+1 “negotiations that led to the pretend nuclear arms “deal.” It was supposed to be the five permanent members of the security council (UK, France, US, Russia, and the PRC) plus then temporary member Germany on one side, Iran on the other side.

    In fact the Europeans were more realistic than we often give them credit for. They recognized full well the threat a nuclear armed Iran poses. It’s more of a threat to them since they’re closer to Iran than the US is, and Iran doesn’t need as much time to develop a nuclear-armed ballistic missile that can reach them as Iran will need to develop an ICBM that can reach us.

    They realized that the Obama/Biden administrations JCPOA is a complete fraud. But they were telling the press (not reported by or leftist MFM Praetorian Guard DNC propagandists, but accessible if you read the European press) that it was the U.S. and Iran together negotiating against them. Even more than Russia and China.

    Sen. Bob Menendez (D-NJ)_knew this as well. He may well be a complete s***bird, but I don’t need to defend him to observe that even a corrupt on-the-take underage Dominican Republic whoremongering blind hog finds a nut now and then. During one hearing he told an Obama/Biden DoS official that it sounded like the administration was getting its talking points straight from Tehran.

    https://ezkool.com/2015/01/undercover-republican-bob-menendez-says-obamas-talking-points-come-straight-from-tehran/

    The only reason this leftist writer hated Menendez was because Menendez wasn’t drinking the same Obama Kool Aid the fawning sycophantic MFM was (Ben Rhodes, failed novelist and Obama NSC adviser bragged in NYT magazine about how easy it was to get the MFM to sing the administration’s tune). The admin was getting its talking points from Tehran; they were as the Europeans realized both marching in lockstep against them.

    The Europeans realized they had no hope of actually getting something that would prevent Iran from getting nuclear weapons. And that there was money to be made dealing with Iran and they might as well not let the U.S., the PRC, and Russia make all of it.

    I suspect that the same thing is going on here. The U.S. is going to get back in bed with the Mullah’s, so if there are deals to be made then they should be realistic and make hay while the sun shines. If they tried to maintain sanctions while the U.S., the PRC, and Russia aren’t it would amount to spitting into the wind.

    Every week on Friday in Mosques all over Iran, Iranians stomp on the U.S. (and Israeli) flag and chant, “Death to Iran.”

    Look at what the left is doing now that it’s “Dems go Wild: Spring Break in D.C.” time as far as they’re concerned. A military occupation of Washington, political prosecutions of their enemies, pork appropriated from their domestic enemies handed out like candy to their favored and most reliable constituencies, open borders, massive crippling debt, etc.

    Once a week Iranians wish “Death to America.” Every day the Dems wish and come closer to bringing “Death to America.”

    The Biden/admin isn’t getting played here. The only people who got played are some portion of voters who got Biden elected who were too stupid to know this is exactly what they were voting for.

      alaskabob in reply to Arminius. | March 7, 2021 at 5:28 pm

      Iran has been developing container ship missile launch capability. EMP is the great leveler and it takes only a couple to do it.

      Arminius in reply to Arminius. | March 7, 2021 at 10:28 pm

      I mentioned in my previous post that, “The only people who got played are some portion of voters who got Biden elected who were too stupid to know this is exactly what they were voting for.”

      Later I came across a gobsmacking example of the mind-numbing stupidity of people who thought with Biden they were getting the moderate centrist his propagandists and handlers created out of whole cloth. They thought the rabid partisan hack who led the “high tech lynching” of Clarence Thomas, who has a fifty year record of lying about everything from his public record to his family history (he plagiarized British Labour leader Neil Kinnock’s family history along with Kinnock’s speech) to his wife’s and children’s deaths (he kept saying they were killed by a drunk driver when he knew damned well the truck driver had no alcohol in her system and in fact investigators believed Mrs. Biden was probably at fault). He was nearly kicked out of law school for plagiarizing.

      And now Pro-Life Evangelicals for Biden are shocked to learn that Biden lied to them about being willing to at least negotiate over the issue of abortion.

      https://twitter.com/Breaking911/status/1368400944476651523

      These fools believed Biden’s campaign reps when they promised their group that in exchange for their public support the Biden/Harris admin would engage them on the issue of abortion, and in particular the Hyde Amendment. And the Biden/Harris admin hasn’t spoken to them since the election. And now they haz a sadz that the House passed the wildly misnamed American Recovery Act with the Biden/Harris admin’s full throated support and, whoa, who could have seen this coming? It excluded the Hyde Amendment and provides for public funding for abortion.

      I mean, when you’re dealing with pols like “devout Catholic” Joe Biden, who never met an abortion bill he didn’t love and has actually been denied communion be at least one Catholic priest for his support of abortion (which the Catholic catechism teaches is a grave evil that is never permissible under any circumstance) and consistently promised throughout his campaign to be the most pro-abortion President in history, “devout Catholic” Nancy Pelosi who stated her “devout Catholic” devotion to Catholic moral teaching by saying for her unrestricted access to abortion was “sacred ground,” and Kamala Harris, who apparently is a member in good standing of a Baptist church who as the most radical Senator in her caucus supports abortion up to the moment of birth, and they promise to be flexible on an issue they’ve never, ever budged on before once in office in exchange for an endorsement then that promise is LIKE GOLD. Yesiree bob! That iron clad promise ain’t no malarkey. C’mon man! Joe Biden ain’t no lying dog-faced pony soldier.

      Now the Pro-Life Evangelicals state in their open letter they feel “feel used and betrayed and have no intention of simply watching these kinds of efforts happen from the sidelines.”

      Breaking news, Pro-Life Evangelicals for Biden: you just did. Get ready to eat more s*** sandwiches. And what are you going to do about it? Storm the capital?

      No. The two clowns who put their names have on this letter have a better idea. They issued an ultimatum that no doubt has the pro-abortion crowd shaking in their boots.

      “We call on President Biden to honor his commitment to us and immediately demand that the House of Representatives apply the Hyde language to the American Relief package.”

      I’m sure they’ll get right on it.

      “This is no time for radical change to longstanding abortion policy.”

      Breaking news, Pro-Life Evangelicals for Biden: Pelosi, Schumer, and Harris (Biden was sitting in his basement gumming down his tapioca pudding cups and Gerber’s baby food pureed squash) had been telling the world for over a year that if their side won THIS WOULD BE EXACTLY THE TIME for radical change. Hello!

      Now, the two clowns; Dr. Richard Mouw, President Emeritus, Fuller Seminary (I’m familiar with this comic book caricature of a former respected Seminary) and Ronald J. Sider, President Emeritus, Evangelicals for Social Action, really threaten to bring down the fire and brimstone.

      “If this is not done it will raise the question of whether or not we are still welcome in the Democratic party.”

      Oh, noz? It’ll raise a question?

      Breaking news (that is, news only to you), Pro-Life Evangelicals for Biden: Everybody else had the answer to your question nearly two years ago.

      https://www.pbs.org/newshour/politics/joe-biden-reverses-position-on-using-federal-dollars-for-abortions

      “ATLANTA (AP) — After two days of intense criticism, Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden reversed course Thursday and declared that he no longer supports a long-standing congressional ban on using federal health care money to pay for abortions.

      “If I believe health care is a right, as I do, I can no longer support an amendment” that makes it more difficult for some women to access care, Biden said at a Democratic Party fundraiser in Atlanta…”

      The AP published that article in June 2019. FREAKING 2019!

      The Democrat party promised in their 2020 platform to repeal all restrictions on abortion and repeal the Hyde Amendment.

      “2020 Democratic Party Platform on abortion: Securing Reproductive Health, Rights, and Justice

      …Democrats oppose and will fight to overturn federal and state laws that create barriers to reproductive health and rights. We will repeal the Hyde Amendment…”

      And the two Mensa members in charge of Pro-Life Evangelicals for Biden are just now, in 2021, cluing in on the notion that maybe, just maybe, they may not be welcome in the Democrat party.

      I thought at first that no such group could exist, that this had to be satire. But no, I found articles confirming this group’s existence going back well into last year. And a list of evangelicals coming out to support Biden, including Jerushah Duford, Billy Graham’s granddaughter. I don’t recognize any of the other names.

      When I confirmed this group actually does exist I had two responses. First, how can anybody this stupid survive to adulthood let alone to be the “president emeritus” of anything. I mean, they not only survived to adulthood they survived to retirement age. And second, of course there’s a place for them in the Democrat party. Useful idiots this jaw-droppingly moronic will always be welcome if they want to crawl back for more degradation and humiliation.

      Just ask Bart Stupak, pro-life Democrat Congressman from Michigan who agreed to drop his push for an amendment to the President’s cherished Patient Protection and Affordable Care (Obamacare) Act that would prohibit federal taxpayer funding for abortion under that bill, if the President would issue an executive order restating his commitment to enforcing the Hyde Amendment. Obama promised to do so, and Stupak voted for the PPACA as written which provided federal taxpayer funding for abortions. Obama did in fact sign Executive Order 13535 which “restricted” federal funding for abortion.

      Oh, wait, Stupak became a former Pro-Life Democrat Rep. from Michigan for being stupid enough to fall for this. Everyone else could see Obama would never keep his promise. But Stupak in 2010, like Mouw and Sider in 2020, just knew they could trust this crew. And sure enough as soon as he signed the PPACA into law Obama discovered the E.O. he had written and signed into law proved no barrier at all to him approving federal funding for abortion. Because an E.O. isn’t a law, so a President can’t be forced to enforce it.

      It can be ignored or rescinded at any time. Amazingly, just like a campaign promise. But if anyone is stupid enough to do the Dems a favor today in exchange for an I.O.U. the Dem never intends to make good on, they’re welcome back anytime.

    They pay for it, in US cash smuggled to Iran under obama.

    Democrats are bribeable to commit treason. It’s part of the democrat resume.

    The obama mission to destroy the US was delayed 4 years, but it’s back on track. And we’re sitting around like schmucks, doing little about it.

      Based on events of the last 30 years, it appears the long-term goal has been to undermine the power structure in the US. Very much in line with USSR objectives in the cold war. Although most Americans thought the cold was was over (and that we won) the reality is that we won nothing and the cold war actually continues with China taking the lead.

      Recipe for undermining a country’s power structure:
      1. Flood it with millions of non-citizens;
      2. Promote fiscal stupidity – bankrupt the country;
      3. Balkanize the country and pit each “identity” against the other;
      4. Enlist anarchist groups (Antida, etc) to cause mayhem;
      5. Enlist media for propaganda that emphasizes each identity group’s grievances and victims. Media will gladly do so and even make-up facts because mayhem attracts greater audience and audience sells advertising;
      6. Defund police and military. Make sure anyone who served or thinks of serving is shamed;
      7. Rewrite history so as to dilute patriotism;
      8. Remove moral and ethical boundaries and any organization that enforces such boundaries – like religion / family structure.
      9. Promote new social order (socialism) as the answer to all the problems (described above) which were created over the years;

      Achieve all of the above; let it all simmer for a while until it comes to a boil – and soon the country is ruined.

      We are now in the simmering stage.

        It’s hard to tell where simmering ends and boiling begins.

        NavyMustang in reply to Ben Kent. | March 7, 2021 at 4:04 pm

        I agree totally.

        I was a Russian linguist in the Navy during the last 11 years of the Cold War. I pretty much spent those years deployed which is why whenever I see stuff about 80s culture, I have no idea what folks are talking about. Now talk to me about the Akula nuclear sub or TU-142 Bear F’s and that’s a different story.

        Well, I actually thought I was doing my part to defeat communism. Silly me. While I was spending my life on ships, subs, and recce aircraft, teachers were undermining our country by feeding our youth communist BS. It was really disheartening to realize that.

        Years after the Berlin Wall came down, I had the opportunity to travel to the former East Germany with other military folks stationed at European Command in Stuttgart. We had a meeting with members of the legislature for Saxony IIRC. One of the reps was a member of the Communist party, known then as the PDS. Someone asked him if he felt depressed about what happened to the DDR. He smiled a thin smile and simply replied, “We are patient.”

        That about sums it up for me. They were patient and their time has arrived.

gonzotx – nice to see you posting. It does feel like end times. sad days, indeed.

The approach that Iran is taking is “keep negotiating, while developing weapons”. You will see them lose interest in negotiations only once they have their first demonstrated weapon. But they will never “compromise”, unless it means world capitulation to them like the 2015 agreement.

My feeling is because Barry told him how pleased he would be.

Billions of dollars flowing to Dem special interests and a similar flood of cash back into the DNC pockets. The Deep State is perfectly happy with Iran having nukes. They are frogs who don’t understand the bargains they are making with scorpions all over the world.

Peace in our time.

The Biden administration is pleased to drive the final nail in the coffin of Western Civilization. Please don’t bother to turn out the lights on your way out as they will go out on their own. The only question now is not whether, but when…
