This is CBS I on the world with John Bachelor.

Here's John Bachelor.

I welcome Richard Goldberg of the Foundation for the Defense of Democracy,

the Senior Advisor.

The Iran attack on Israel in these last days presents a challenge that is frightening and at the same time

the question comes can it be managed right now there's a negotiation in some fashion going on between all the world powers about an

Israeli retaliation and Iran escalation.

We have news in these last hours that Rhese, the president of Iran, has called Vladimir Putin in

Moscow.

We have news that Wang Yi, the foreign secretary of the People's Republic of China, the Blunt Speaker, has said he believes Iran can handle, can manage the turmoil.

We have remarks from the Biden administration saying, do not retaliate in any fashion whatsoever and make it worse.

Richard, a very good evening to you.

All of this comes to the policies that were the day before the attack. The administration has been seeking

awakening or renovating or improving the JCPOA of 2015. We've had reason to speculate that that is no longer going forward given

all the provocations and what you'd have to say plain aggression by Iran at least

these last six months.

However, now that Iran has used missiles and drones to attack Jerusalem and the people of

Israel, is JCPOA done or the conocals of JCPOA done are the codicels of JCPOA done.

Good evening to you.

Good evening, John.

I wish the answer was yes, but all signals that I see right now are that there's literally nothing that will break the addiction of some in Washington and Europe to the prospect of a nuclear deal and an accommodation as policy toward the

Islamic Republic of Iran.
