if the u.s. government now is sort of confidently and uncomplicatedly asserting that they know what kiimnick did with that information, does that mean they've developed new information or that some part of the biden administration is willing to disclose this information when under the previous president, even though they knew this, they weren't willing to share it even with the senate intelligence committee? how new is this, how much of a new capability does this reflect? >> so i think you're hitting on the most important question here, and the thing that i really want to know, which is, when did the u.s. government figure this out. is this something that they've known for years? that would put it back during the trump administration. or is that something that was recently developed? we know that trump administration officials were very hesitant to do anything on russia because of the way -- because of trump's posture and anger on this issue. so where did this come from? when did this change? i d

officials without u.s. officials or before u.s. officials would give any sanctions relief to iran and that was essentially the trump approach meet with them meet with the united states without the united states easing sanctions in any way biden started off in office essentially with this trump approach now the difference in the change is that this didn't work and so the u.s. envoy rob malley was able to convince others here in washington because there's a real divide here in washington right now he was able to convince people here that there could be indirect. interact talks with iran essentially proximity talks what's happening right now in vienna. and he said publicly and this is critically important publicly rob malley the u.s. envoy said that the united states understood that you are not the united states would have to lift the sanctions that are inconsistent with the 2015 chase e.p.o. lay the iran nuclear deal essentially what iran has been demanding from the start. tarik of course nobody expects these proximity talks will be
