International Security Iran JCPOA Nuclear nonproliferation

Nothing New Under the Sun

Regrettably, under the Trump administration the U.S.-Russian framework turned no longer valid for addressing Iran` s nuclear issue. Although Russia has better communication with Iran and can be instrumental in renewing cooperation, Moscow cannot influence the U.S. position on Iran. With the leadership of the two countries holding discording views on Iran, there is little prospect for new achievements. like the JCPOA. If the restoration of the nuclear deal fails, the role of Russia-U.S. dialogue on Iran will be limited to a modest range from contingency diplomacy between Washington and Tehran to avoid a military conflict to a routine exchange of views on the current developments in the Middle East.

Margoev, Adlan R.

U.S. President-elect Donald Trump has announced that the U.S. is to hold direct talks with Iran in a bid to prevent the country from obtaining an atomic bomb, while also warning Tehran of dire consequences if they fail. Amid these developments, we would like to recall the chapter written by Dr. Adlan Margoev, Research Fellow at the Center for Middle East Studies at the Institute for International Studies of MGIMO University, titled “Dialogue on the Iranian Nuclear Program: Lessons Learned and Ignored”, which was first published in PIR Center’s collective monograph “Russia-U.S. Nuclear Nonproliferation Dialogue: Lessons Learned and Road Ahead” (2021).
