US foreign policy towards the Iranian nuclear crisis (2016-2022)‎

Abstract EN

American policy has witnessed an escalation and a change in attitudes toward the Iranian nuclear file since the Iranian revolution.

Especially after President Barack Obama came to power, which was characterized by diplomacy and negotiations, which resulted in the signing of a 5 + 1 agreement in 2015, and with the arrival of the US administration with the administration of Donald Trump, the policy changed by canceling the Iran nuclear agreement, on the grounds that the agreement is a loss and harms interests American.

On the other hand, after current President Joe Biden came to power, he wanted to restore the Iran nuclear deal all over again.

Therefore, the study attempts to answer the extent to which the policy of successive US administrations towards the Iranian nuclear file differed from 2016 to 2022.

The study assumes that the US policy towards the Iranian nuclear file is based on defining Iran's role in the region and preventing it from acquiring nuclear weapons so as not to endanger US interests in the region.
