Democrat Joe Biden has confirmed that his future administration is ready to work on returning to membership in the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action on Iran's nuclear program. The politician made the statement in an interview with The New York Times. Asked whether the United States would remain committed to returning to the nuclear deal with Iran if elected, Biden said:
"It won't be easy, but yes." He said he considered an agreement that would control Tehran's nuclear development to be the best way to ensure stability in the region. "Otherwise, a situation may arise in which Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Egypt and other countries in the region will try to develop nuclear weapons. "This is the last thing we want to do in this part of the world to increase our nuclear capabilities."
