Critics say Russian president Vladimir Putin, and Iranian supreme Leader Ali Khamenei in June 2022. Wikimedia Commons    <\/p>\n<p>According to a confidential notification that was sent to Congress and obtained from the White House, the Biden administration renewed several sanctions waivers that allow Iran and Russia to collaborate on nuclear work at Iranian enrichment site sites.\u00a0<em>Washington Free Beacon<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>Antony Blinken, Secretary-at-Large of State, approved the waivers on January 31, but Congress was not informed of the decision until February 3, after the fact.\u00a0<em>Free Beacon<\/em>\u00a0Begun to inquire about the exemptions. Sources close to the Biden administration said that they are trying to sweep away the exemptions from sanctions waivers amid renewed concerns over Iran&#8217;s military alliance and Russia.<\/p>\n<p>The waivers\u2014a vestige of the 2015 nuclear deal that the Biden administration is trying to salvage\u2014provide billions in profit for Russian-state controlled firms, such as the Rosatom nuclear company, for work at Iran&#8217;s Fordow nuclear plant, a contested military site suspected of housing Tehran&#8217;s nuclear weapons program. Iran is enriching its uranium to levels that would make it a viable nuclear weapon component. International observers are concerned about the possibility of an attack on their country&#8217;s nuclear weapons program. Critics claim that the Biden administration allows Iran to enrich Russia while allowing it to continue its nuclear program.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;These waivers send a message to both Tehran and Moscow that Washington still wants to move forward with a Russia-enabled Iran nuclear deal where [Russian president Vladimir] Putin and the mullahs both make billions,&#8221; Richard Goldberg, who is a senior adviser at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies think-tank and was previously White House National Security Council director for countering Iranian weapons of destruction, said that. &#8220;It&#8217;s a real stab in the back to Ukraine and a win for Rosatom.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Congress is working to crackdown on Iran-Russia&#8217;s axis as Tehran supplies Moscow drones for its ongoing war with Ukraine.
