Answer:

"For a number of years, he [Vice President Joe Biden] advocated dividing Iraq into three states."

Explanation:

When trying to insert explanatory words into a direct quotation, square brackets are used to show that those words were not in the original quotation.

The name of vice president Joe Biden is an explanation intended to clarify meaning hence it should appear within square brackets and not parenthesis.
