WASHINGTON (AP) — The Biden administration says it's ready to join talks with Iran and world powers to discuss a return to the 2015 nuclear deal, in a sharp repudiation of former President Donald Trump’s “maximum pressure campaign” that sought to isolate the Islamic Republic.
The administration also took two steps at the United Nations aimed at restoring policy to what it was before Trump withdrew from the deal in 2018. The combined actions were immediately criticized by Iran hawks and drew concern from Israel, which said it was committed to keeping Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons.
Besides signaling Thursday a willingness to talk with Iran, the administration also reversed Trump’s determination that all U.N. sanctions against Iran had been restored. And, it eased stringent restrictions on the domestic travel of Iranian diplomats posted to the United Nations.
The State Department announced the moves following discussions between Secretary of State Antony Blinken and his British, French and German counterparts and as Biden prepares to participate, albeit virtually, in his first major international events with world leaders.
The announcement came a day before Biden is to speak to leaders of the Group of Seven industrialized democracies and later in the day address the annual Munich Security Conference. At both Friday, Biden is expected to discuss his commitment to multilateral diplomacy and his desire to undo damage that Trump's positions may have caused over the previous four years.

Nope.
The sad and very scary thing is, Biden is not in control - has never been in control - and will never be in control. He was a useful idiot, in every sense of the word, to get Harris in the Oval Office, so her puppet masters can try and have their way.
By virtue of the fact that the Democrats and media (yes, I know, it’s a redundancy) and far too many so-called Republicans go utterly wild at the mere suggestion that the election was stolen proves to me that they know just as well as we do that it was.
Resident biden is trying to destroy the PRESIDENT Trump Legacy of ME Peace.
Get ready for war!
We had a foreign policy that was actually working in the Middle East and bringing more stability than had been there in quite some time.
Now that is being rapidly abandoned to get things more back to “normal” in the region...chaos. Our allies in the area are going to be abandoned and our enemies will be coddled.
This is disgusting.
Israel will have to take care of this problem.
Biden, like Obama, is ready to give away the store. Trump had the right tact. Biden has no clue!
