In a newly unearthed video, Joe Biden appeared to declare that the Iran nuclear deal is “dead,” but that the administration would not announce it publicly.
The video, allegedly taken during a Democrat rally for the midterms in California on November 4, shows Biden talking to a woman who identifies herself as being Iranian. “President Biden, would you please announce that [the] JCPOA [Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action] is dead? Can you just announce that?” the woman asks Biden while shaking his hand.
“No,” Biden replied, adding that there were a “lot of reasons” why he wouldn’t go ahead with any announcement about the Iran nuclear deal. “It is dead, but we’re not gonna announce it. Long story, but we’re gonna make sure they…” he continued, before being cut off, seemingly oblivious to the fact that he had just declared publicly that it was dead.
“We just don’t want any deals with the mullahs. No deals! They don’t represent us, they’re not our government,” the woman replied. “Oh, I know they don’t represent you, but they’ll have a nuclear weapon that they’ll represent…” Biden quipped back, before the video ended.
بایدن: برجام مُرده.
در ویدئویی که به دستم رسیده، بایدن صریحاً می‌گوید به #برجام بازنمی‌گردد، ولی دولت آمریکا فعلاً اعلام نخواهد کرد.

A spokesman for the White House National Security Council told Axios that the Iran nuclear deal is not the “focus” of the Biden administration, or on the “agenda” of government. “We don’t see a deal coming together anytime soon,” they added, higlighting the current protests in the country and their support for the Russian military action in Ukraine.
“Our focus is on practical ways to confront them in these areas,” the spokesman concluded. The official statement echoed that of US envoy for Iran, Rob Malley, in October, who said they wouldn’t “waste time” with looking at the deal.
As Valiant News reported, a new Harvard-Harris poll revealed that the majority of American voters do not think that Biden should be president due to his advanced age, expressing doubt in his mental fitness to hold office.
A video from Monday showed Biden appearing to lose his sense of direction while exiting a stage, having to ask a young girl for directions to leave the area.
