Nuclear Agreement between Iran and P5+1 (A Critical Perspective of Region and International Actors)

Abstract

A Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (also known as JCPOA) was signed on 14th July 2015 between Iran and P5+1 at Vienna. This phenomenal deal has been seen as a significant move towards Iran-West relations. Because it is widely believed that the successful implementation of this deal will shift the balance of power towards Iran. Although Tehran is playing key position in the politics of Middle East but in case of successful implication of this agreement it could obtain the same position which it had before the 1979s Islamic revolution. Because the normalized relation with West specifically with the US will further strengthens the Iranian position in the region. Therefore some observers called this agreement as the deal of the century. Initially American President Barack Obama and his government faced complications to make this deal acceptable to their regional allies as well as the fellow congressmen. The article examines the implication of this agreement on the regional and international politics. It also tries to examine and evaluate the futuristic approach of important regional players on the issue of nuclear Iran.
