Tensions between the US and Iran persist.
Now there could be movement in the nuclear dispute between the two countries.
President Joe Biden brings a well-known professional on board.
There were already problems between the US and Iran during the tenure of ex-President Donald Trump.
Trump's successor Joe Biden also initially chose the hard hand.
But now the US president opens the door for new talks - through a personnel decision.
Washington DC / Tehran - Relations between the
US
and
Iran
are currently tense.
In
Tehran
one hoped for a little relaxation through the change of power in the White House.
But even the new
US President Joe Biden
initially relied on
hardship
in the
dispute over the
nuclear agreement
between the two nations
.
The
United States
accuses Iran of
breach of treaty
.
That is why
Foreign Minister Antony Blinken called
for the treaty points of the nuclear agreement on his first day in office in Tehran
to be observed.
Only then would the US
relax
its
sanctions
again.
“It will be a long way.
The whole thing will take time, ”feared Blinken.

a recognized expert, as
his
government's
new
commissioner
for
Iran
.
Malley is
no stranger to
the
Middle East
.
He was the
US chief negotiator
in talks about a nuclear deal with
Tehran
.
Malley has a very good network in Iran; the
diplomat
maintains personal contact with many of the country's politicians.
Now he is the bearer of hope for a
solution to the conflict
in the
nuclear dispute
between the USA and Iran.
In addition, Malley is said to be
in contact
with government officials from
Germany
,
France
and
Great Britain

Iran: US sends bombers to the Middle East
But the new
US administration
under President Biden, who had only been in office for almost two weeks, was determined.
As a sign of strength, the
Pentagon
dispatched
a B 52 bomber from an
air force base
in the US state of Louisiana to the
Middle East
.
Ex-President
Donald Trump
had previously sent
such an
aircraft
, which
can carry
nuclear weapons
,
on a sightseeing flight over Iran three times.
This was not well received by
the
Iranian government
.
"Fact check for @SecBlinken: The
US
has violated the JCPOA," wrote Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif on Twitter.
Iran does not want to give in until the US sanctions are lifted.
Otherwise, the treaty limits on uranium enrichment will continue to be ignored.
