For several months now, a story has been brewing about a possible prisoner exchange with Iran.
When the story first surfaced in May, the Biden administration denied any such talks were taking place.
Now, however, the Biden administration is slamming Iran for linking the exchange to the delay in nuclear talks taking place.
Someone Here is Lying
For some reason, Joe Biden continues to think that he can trust Iran.
The moment the administration denied any such prisoner swap negotiations were going on, Iran knew it had Biden over a barrel.
The administration is now calling the possible exchange a “humanitarian gesture.”
Iranian official Seyed Abbas Araghchi slammed both the US and the UK on Twitter, blowing this whole thing wide open…
US & UK need to understand this and stop linking a humanitarian exchange—ready to be implemented—with the JCPOA.
Keeping such an exchange hostage to political aims achieves neither.
TEN PRISONERS on all sides may be released TOMORROW if US&UK fulfill their part of deal. 2/2

State Department spokesperson Ned Price then issued another denial, stating, “These comments are an outrageous effort to deflect blame for the current impasse on a potential mutual return to compliance with the JCPOA.
“We stand ready to return to Vienna to complete work on a mutual return to the JCPOA once Iran has made the necessary decisions.”
Price later added, “If Iran were truly interested in making a humanitarian gesture, it would simply release the detainees immediately.”
Iran’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs spokesperson Saeed Khatibzadeh called the denial by Price “outrageous.”
"Outrageous"=the US denying simple fact that "there IS an agreed deal on the matter of the detainees." Even on how to announce it.
Humanitarian swap was agreed with US & UK in Vienna-separate from JCPOA- on release of 10 prisoners on all sides.
Iran is ready to proceed TODAY.

It’s easy to put something over on a fool , who is braindead as well!
Amen
Amen!
Don’t know why we’re paying for congressional people, because this administration has become a dictatorship !!!!!!
That’s what happens when you have today’s mafia in the white house making deals!!!!! Interesting how they’re illegal deeds keep coming to light… when do these criminals become accountable????
I think never accountable
They will get away with it
What a bad joke this administration is. Making the US look like amateurs (which our admin is).
Worse kind of amateurs, the dumb kind
Who is Iran getting in the EXCHANGE? Negotiating with terrorists is never a good thing, nor affects a good outcome for the US/UK.
Does anyone truly believe that IRAN will honor the nuclear deal this time? HAHA.
Agree with all posts. Biden “ thinks” he is a negotiator, but in actuality he is an incompetent fool. And—- all our enemies know this. Why we allow this farce to continue is beyond comprehension. What happens when all this voter fraud is proven, and that President Trump actually won? Will Biden be allowed to continue as the so called president, or will Trump be put back in office where he belongs? Will the two fake Georgia senators be allowed to remain in office? Something needs to be done, our country is at stake, allowing this to continue endangers us all.
Patty, you are so right! What is going on in this country reeks of communist control, which is what we will soon be under, if the American people don’t wake up and realize that we have a communist media, and a lot of communist politicians and judges! I am very worried for the future of this country!
Hey Joe now U know how it feels right
