These accusations against Malley are not baseless.
He is quite fond of #Iran’s former FM Zarif (dubbed Tehran’s chief apologist) and has long enjoyed relations with Iran’s DC-based lobby arm NIAC.

Malley’s primary mission in the Biden admin is to resurrect Obama’s highly failed/flawed 2015 nuclear deal with Iran that gave the regime access to $152 billion in credit/cash.
@GLNoronha described the Vienna talks (with the US delegation led by Malley) as a “total disaster”.

The talks were filtered & “essentially run” by Russian diplomat Mikhail Ulyanov.
Ulyanov met w/ Ali Vaez of @CrisisGroup during the talks.
Vaez has close ties with Tehran (seen in a photo alongside former Iranian president Rafsanjani).
Malley is the former president of ICG.

Remember Zarif, Iran’s former FM?
He recently published a book discussing the 2015 nuclear negotiations, and the role of ICG, and a certain “individual in contact with the U.S. delegation and an active ICG member.”

Diplomatic sources describe Rob Malley, the US Special Rep for #Iran leading the talks in Vienna, as "the most dovish official we’ve ever seen."
Malley enjoyed Zarif's company during the 2015 nuclear talks & is close to Iran's DC-based lobby arm NIAC.

Malley, while being a U.S. official, sounds more like the Iranian foreign minister or a strong Iranian apologist/lobbyist.
Malley: "... what we have to do so that Iran enjoys the benefits of the deal...]"

It is important to know what Malley thinks about Hamas and Hezbollah.

This is exactly why Mehdi Hasan, a known #Iran apologist, invited Malley on his MSNBC show to push more of Tehran’s talking points.

Malley has argued: "Most of the region’s dis-functioning have root in Iran’s exclusion."
Don't be surprised. His remarks about Iran-backed terrorist groups, such as Hamas and Hezbollah, are quite telling.

@RepPatFallon—"This policy of appeasement must end. That starts with the removal of Special Envoy for Iran Rob Malley, permanently halting nuclear negotiations with this thuggish regime, and by substantively supporting courageous Iranian protesters."

Finally, while Malley & the Biden administration are so keen on returning to Obama's highly flawed & failed 2015 nuclear deal, it is worth noting that #Iran has been violating that deal since day one.
Their officials even boast about it on state TV.
