WASHINGTON - A US citizen jailed in Iran announced a seven-day hunger strike starting Monday as he implored President Joe Biden to put greater priority on his case.
Namazi, who is of Iranian descent, was arrested in October 2015 on charges he denies of trying to overthrow the clerical state. He launched the hunger strike on the anniversary of the 2016 release of five other Americans as Iran and the US implemented a denuclearisation deal brokered by then president Barack Obama.
The Biden administration sought to restore the nuclear deal and made clear it could not go forward without the release of imprisoned Americans.
