White House spokeswoman Karin Jean-Pierre said today (Wednesday) at a briefing for reporters at the White House on Wednesday that President Biden "from the beginning of his presidency has had an obligation to prevent Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons" in response to the question of whether the United States continues in the same line with the Islamic Republic.
The question comes against the background of the latest attack on Iranian properties in Syria early Wednesday morning, in response to an Iranian attack on American forces on the 15th of the month and several other incidents.
The Central Command clarified on Wednesday that the US "does not want an escalation but will continue to defend itself."
Jean-Pierre clarified that the American determination to strike Iran will not change the US approach that "a resolution of the nuclear agreement is the preferred way" to restrain Iran with regard to the nuclear threat posed by it. But on the other hand she clarified, as Biden previously said, that "the President will use all means to prevent Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons."
The words were said just hours after the US responded to the latest Iranian proposal for the nuclear agreement. According to reports, there are still gaps that may prevent the completion of the agreement, chief among them, the American refusal to pressure the International Atomic Energy Agency to close the investigations against Iran regarding uranium remnants at undeclared sites It is estimated that even if they reach agreements on a new agreement, it is possible that they will be implemented in practice only after Iran verifies that the cases on the part of the IAEA have been closed.
