He said this at a press conference organized by the Rossiya Segodnya media group.

“Information was leaked that even before the congressional elections, namely on November 4, during one of the election meetings, Biden, in response to a question from one of the voters, confirmed that the nuclear deal was dead, but the United States would not announce it.

These words have become widespread and it seems that indeed the Americans have decided for themselves to at least freeze the negotiations, ”RIA Novosti quotes him.

As Ulyanov noted, he believes that this is a "completely irresponsible line of behavior", especially since there were "several steps" before the conclusion of the agreement.

Earlier, Pentagon Deputy Head for Political Affairs Colin Kahl said that the issue of restoring the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action on the Iranian nuclear program had lost its relevance in the short term.

US President Joe Biden admitted that the Iran nuclear deal is already dead, but refused to announce it officially.
