The United States still believes that Iran has not made
decision to build nuclear weapons, despite Tehran's
recent strategic setbacks, including Israel's as-
sassination of Hezbollah leaders and two generally
unsuccessful attempts to attack Israel, two U. S. offi-cials
said.
The comments by a senior Biden administration
official and a representative of the Office
of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI)
complemented public statements made earlier this
week by CIA Director William Burns, who said
the United States had seen no evidence that
Iran's leader had reversed his 2003 decision on the suspension of the weapons program.
