Should the Biden administration persist in pursuing a leadership approach perceived as lacking in strength, and should the Biden administration continue to pursue a strategy characterized by conciliation and concession towards the Iranian regime, 2024 will mark the year that the Islamic Republic of Iran acquires nuclear weapons, heralding a pivotal development in their military capabilities and devastating, far-reaching repercussions for regional and international security. If the US fails to remove Iran’s nuclear capability – and not just (literally) buy time to enable it – the catastrophes that follow will surely go down as US President Joe Biden’s legacy, as well as the legacy of those around him.

In response to Iran’s advancing nuclear capabilities, the US and Western powers’ reaction has so far amounted to a “condemnation,” indicating a lack of measures to impede Iran’s progress, and suggesting a passive stance of acceptance rather than an active effort to counter Iran’s actions.
