The Director of National Intelligence has declassified the report that says Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman approved action against Jamal Khashoggi as the Biden administration is trying to rewrite the balance of its ties with the kingdom.
Iran and US are locked in a stand-off over who should move first to save the unravelling 2015 deal. Tehran says US should lift sanctions but the Biden administration wants Iran to undo its breaches of the deal’s nuclear restrictions first.
The move is the latest of several recent announcements by Iran to the International Atomic Energy Agency that it plans to further breach the deal, which it started violating in 2019 in retaliation for Washington's withdrawal from the agreement.
