11. The Rise and Fall of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action.

Author

Mousavian, Seyed Hossein

Subjects
JOINT Comprehensive Plan of Action (2015), INTERNATIONAL mediation, NUCLEAR nonproliferation, SNAP elections, MEDIATION, NUCLEAR weapons
Abstract

Diplomatic efforts to revive the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) have stalled since fall 2022. Iran expressed willingness to cooperate, contrasting with uncertainty from the West. Recent talks on a "trigger or snap back mechanism" risk prompting Iran to suspend Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT) safeguards, potentially sparking regional conflict. Two key factors contribute to the uncertainty: conflicting White House statements on diplomacy and the absence of direct talks due to the US special envoy's leave. Iran's advancing nuclear capabilities intensify the need for diplomatic solutions. This article advocates for a temporary JCPOA revival agreement, acknowledging challenges. Drawing from historical lessons of failed "piecemeal deals," it underscores the necessity of a grand bargain. This comprehensive approach requires resuming direct US-Iran negotiations, addressing Persian Gulf regional issues, involving Iran, the EU, and Ukraine to ensure noninterference in Ukraine, and international mediation for Iran-Israel tensions. These elements provide a holistic path to regional stability. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

19. Iran and the United State : An Insider's View on the Failed Past and the Road to Peace

Author

Mousavian, Seyed Hossein, Shahidsaless, Shahir, Mousavian, Seyed Hossein, and Shahidsaless, Shahir

Abstract

Scores of books have been written by Western experts, mainly American, looking at the root causes of the conflict between Iran and the US. However, none of them have presented an inside look at this complex relationship from within the Iranian culture, society, and most importantly, the Iranian policy-making system. This gap has been the cause of misperceptions, misanalyses, and conflict, followed by the adoption of US policies that have failed to achieve their objectives. Seyed Hossein Mousavian worked for over 30 years on diplomatic efforts between Iran and the West, serving in numerous official posts, and as a confidante, colleague, and peer to many former and current high ranking Iranian officials, including now-President Hassan Rouhani and Iranian Foreign Minister Javad Zarif. Here the former diplomat gives an insider's history of the troubled relationship between Iran and the US. His unique firsthand perspective blends memoir, analysis, and never before seen details of the many near misses in the quest for rapprochement. With so much at stake, the book concludes with a roadmap for peace that both nations so desperately need.

Author

Miller, William Green and Mousavian, Seyed Hossein

Abstract

After 34 years of hostilities between Iran and the United States, there is now an opportunity for settling their mutual differences. The Obama administration has reiterated its willingness to engage in direct bilateral talks with Iran. Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei has responded to this overture by indicating that Iran would be open to talks when America "proves its goodwill." And even so, the next round of negotiations between Iran and the P5+1 world powers begins today in Almaty, Kazakhstan. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
