The document is an abstract for a master's thesis about the contribution of third parties to the diplomatic resolution of the Iranian nuclear crisis from 2006 to 2015. It discusses US President Obama's call for coordinated international action to address global issues like non-proliferation and Iran's nuclear program. While the 2015 agreement was seen as a diplomatic success, it kept one main unresolved aspect - the decisive role played by third actors like China and Russia. The thesis aims to provide a comprehensive answer on how third parties helped resolve the crisis through constructive diplomacy, despite sometimes difficult bilateral relations.

![ABSTRACT OF THE MASTER THESIS
TOPIC : The contribution of third actors in the diplomatic resolution of
the Iranian nuclear crisis. (2006-2015)
On the occasion of his traditional speech on the State of the Union, (12 January 2016) US
President Barack Obama, emphasized on the pragmatic international approach the US should have
regarding sensitive issues in a globalized anchored environment. As he wisely observed, « we live
in a time of extraordinary change… [and] on issues of global concern, we will mobilize the world to
work with us and make sure other countries pull their own weight ». In other words, the current
complexity of the international game requires from States to develop circumstantial alliances in
order to safeguard their interests. Such a plea for coordinated international action is as urgent as the
challenges that States are increasingly facing represent existential threat for the entire humanity.
Among these challenges stands the Non-proliferation issue in general, and specifically the
international political crisis over Iran's nuclear program.
After the signing of the historic agreement on the Iranian nuclear program on July 14, 2015,
international reactions were almost unanimous on the merits of the diplomatic outcome regarding
the Iranian nuclear crisis. Yet this political equation keeps one main dark sides. How come such a
major political crisis was resolved in a complex and uncertain security environment (Syria, Yemen),
without raising the ghosts of the past (Iraq and Libya) or compromising regional strategic alliances?
The answer to this question involves inexorably the decisive role played by third actors. However, if
the Non-proliferation goal appears to be the most desired wish of third parties, it is also true that
their bilateral relations have not always been harmonious. This modest intellectual work has
therefore the main goal to provide a satisfactory and comprehensive answer on the constructive
process that led to the diplomatic resolution of the Iranian nuclear crisis, with a particular emphasis
on the decisive role played by third actors, mainly China and Russia.

United States Foreign Policy on Iran
Introduction
A foreign policy is an action plan that is established by a certain nation in its diplomatic interaction with another nation of interest (Davis, 2011). These policies are meant to stipulate a way forward on any contentious issues that are bound to come up between the two countries. The United States has developed a unique foreign policy for each country depending on economic, social and political needs among others. United States and Iran share an informal diplomatic tie which is indicated through having no ambassadors in their countries. Iran has some interest section within the Pakistan Embassy in Washington D.C while US interest section is via the Swiss embassy in Tehran (Davis, 2011). Increased interests saw the development of a virtual embassy online by the US in 2011. The main interest of the United States is to establish peace in the Gulf Region so as to continue benefiting from international trade, a major foreign exchange earner. By the year 2008, the trade between United States and Iran stood at $623 million (Ilias, 2010). The United States Census Bureau has observed a steady increase in American exports to Iran since the year 2007. The statistics do not include commercial activities through third party countries due to the established trade embargo. The United States Treasury Department issued approximately 11,000 special licenses to American organizations over the past ten years to directly trade with Iran (Ilias, 2010). Subsequent surveys by The United States Census Bureau in 2014 have indicated over $175 billion losses in trade and 279,000 lost job opportunities based on sanctions. This is a major economic concern for the United States and reducing the number of sanctions is a top priority in boosting the economy. This is one area in which the United States is striving to make changes through its foreign policies. Specifically, the nuclear threats posed by Iran are an issue of concern for the United States because of the unstable political environment in the Gulf Region. Increased insecurity in the region would translate to huge economic losses to the United States.
Iran Nuclear Programs
The current United State’s Obama administration has been concerned with nuclear development in Iran. The United States fails to recognize Iran’s right to nuclear power, thus persistence in halting the progress of related programs. Sanctions have been the main mode of controlling the Iran nuclear advancement initiatives, specifically the Iranian economy isolation meant to interrupt the circulation of money (Juneau & Razavi, 2013).

Foreign policy
This document discusses foreign policy and how it is created and implemented by the president, Congress, and international organizations. Foreign policy aims to collaborate with other nations to achieve worldwide goals. The president can make foreign policy through responding to events and proposing legislation. Congress can influence policy through legislative pressure and restrictions. Examples provided include the Marshall Plan to rebuild Europe after WWII, NATO's strategic security plans, the UN's conferences on economic and environmental issues, and the World Hunger Organization's response to the Somalia famine. The document concludes that stable foreign policy is important for US national security and citizens' safety.
Psych econ of war and peace
War and peace are two powerful forces that have been shaping civilizations. Every nation has gone through various degrees of conflicts. In this paper, the author asks what history lessons can be used to educate the public and policy makers on conflict prevention. If we were to avoid repeating the mistakes and wars of the past, the author believes new innovative approaches are needed for solving old problems of conflicts within a nation and between nations. Alongside current steps to promote social order, the psychology of war and peace must be adequately looked into and utilized in forming the needed policies.

World War III Fictitious Scare or Frightening Possibility
This paper examines the possibility of World War III by analyzing geopolitical situations in the Middle East and South China Sea. In the Middle East, the power vacuum created by the US invasion of Iraq strengthened non-state actors like ISIS and increased involvement by countries like Russia, China, and Iran. In the South China Sea, disputes over territory have increased tensions between China and countries like Japan, the Philippines, and Vietnam. Escalating military capabilities and a worsening economy in China could increase the risk of conflict. The paper also discusses how regional conflicts involving NATO member Turkey or US allies like Japan could potentially draw other major powers into a larger war.
CRISIS COMMUNICATIONS IN GLOBAL POLITICS
This document summarizes the changing nature of foreign policy communications and crisis management in modern global politics. It notes that greater globalization, new communication technologies, and the rise of non-state actors have made international relations more complex and crisis-prone. States must now manage diverse risks like natural disasters, economic instability, and terrorism. Additionally, foreign policy involves more non-governmental stakeholders and issues beyond traditional geopolitics. As a result, modern crisis communications requires coordinating public messages and adapting foreign policy processes to be more flexible, transparent and participatory.

This document provides a summary and analysis of a book on contemporary global politics from the perspective of an Indian diplomat. It discusses how India has historically been complacent and failed to adequately understand major global developments like World War 2, the Cold War, China's rise, which had consequences for India's strategic standing. It argues that as another global power, China, rises in India's proximity, India cannot remain oblivious and must have a serious debate to understand implications and visualize its interests clearly. The document outlines the book's structure and key themes around lessons from history, disruptive global changes, strategic culture, overcoming dogmas, public opinion, managing China's rise and India's role in the Asian balance.
Diplomacy and Statecraft Qsn 1 ..pptx
The tools of diplomacy applied by the USA to deal with Iran, such as agreements, negotiations, sanctions, and cultural diplomacy, have had mixed effectiveness. Withdrawing from the 2015 nuclear agreement increased tensions and hostilities. Negotiations under Biden showed more promise but demands from both sides stalled progress. While sanctions had some economic impact, Iran maintained important trade partners and its economy remained relatively strong. Cultural diplomacy and disaster aid generated goodwill but did not dramatically change diplomatic relations on their own. The effectiveness of diplomacy has been limited without cooperation or willingness to compromise from both sides.

However, it asserts that organizations like NGOs and IGOs are now undermining state sovereignty and US hegemony through shared decision-making and increasing economic interdependence between states.

The document discusses U.S. foreign policy with Iran from 2012-2013. It provides background on the geography and history of tensions between the two countries, including the Iranian hostage crisis and Bush labeling Iran part of the "Axis of Evil." It examines how the U.S. has applied sanctions, diplomacy, and military deterrence to address Iran's nuclear program, and analyzes four key aspects of strategic competition between the two countries. While sanctions have weakened Iran's economy, negotiations have so far failed to stop Iran's nuclear progress.
Panel Debate: Mediation, Conflict Prevention, Resolution and Post-conflict Re...
Conflict resolution is a way for two or more parties to find a peaceful solution to a disagreement among them. The disagreement may be personal, financial, political, or emotional. When a dispute arises, often the best course of action is negotiation to resolve the disagreement. The overall reduction in the number of violent conflicts can, in part, be attributed to the collective efforts of the United Nations, other international actors and regional organisations.
FailureofDiplomacy-Iran
1) The document discusses American-Iranian relations and argues that proper diplomacy can help resolve tensions. It analyzes three issues that have obstructed negotiations: mixing policy and negotiation, refusing to engage diplomatically, and viewing diplomacy through a "warrior theory".
2) Politicians are ill-suited for negotiation compared to career diplomats and seeking public support through inflammatory rhetoric against Iran has exacerbated tensions instead of resolving them.
3) Both countries' domestic politics have been affected by emotional language, making compromise more difficult. The document argues normalized relations and sound diplomacy could help address current issues.

International relations
This document discusses India's international relationships and their impact on the country's economic growth. It provides context on the history of international relations and outlines key determinants of foreign policy. India maintains relationships with many countries around the world, and its national security relies on both internal strength and its ability to exist and develop within the international environment. Bilateral relationships, regional and global groups, and the policies of other nations can all affect India's interests. Examining these dynamics and China's growing global influence is important for understanding India's current international policies and their role in economic development.
TerrorismEssay
The document examines the main obstacles to international cooperation in combating transnational terrorism. It discusses four key obstacles: 1) differing strategic preferences and methods between states like the US and EU, which prioritize threats differently and prefer different coalition approaches; 2) opposition by some states to expanding multilateral cooperation, as seen in Russian and Turkish opposition to NATO operations; 3) challenges of intelligence gathering and sharing due to differing views on privacy and legal authorities; and 4) problems relating to human rights and ethics straining cooperation, as seen in US policies like Guantanamo Bay prison and interrogation techniques. The document analyzes each obstacle and argues that differences in interests between states on these issues reduce effectiveness in fighting transnational terrorism.

International relations
This document discusses India's international relationships and their impact on the country's economic growth. It provides context on the history of international relations and outlines key determinants of foreign policy. India maintains relationships with many countries around the world, and its national security relies on both internal strength and its ability to exist and develop within the international environment. Bilateral relationships, regional and global groups, and the policies of other nations can all affect India's interests. Examining these dynamics and China's growing global influence is important for understanding India's current international policies and their role in economic development.
TerrorismEssay
The document examines the main obstacles to international cooperation in combating transnational terrorism. It discusses four key obstacles: 1) differing strategic preferences and methods between states like the US and EU, which prioritize threats differently and prefer different coalition approaches; 2) opposition by some states to expanding multilateral cooperation, as seen in Russian and Turkish opposition to NATO operations; 3) challenges of intelligence gathering and sharing due to differing views on privacy and legal authorities; and 4) problems relating to human rights and ethics straining cooperation, as seen in US policies like Guantanamo Bay prison and interrogation techniques. The document analyzes each obstacle and argues that differences in interests between states on these issues reduce effectiveness in fighting transnational terrorism.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

ABSTRACT OF THE MASTER THESIS
- 1. ABSTRACT OF THE MASTER THESIS TOPIC : The contribution of third actors in the diplomatic resolution of the Iranian nuclear crisis. (2006-2015) On the occasion of his traditional speech on the State of the Union, (12 January 2016) US President Barack Obama, emphasized on the pragmatic international approach the US should have regarding sensitive issues in a globalized anchored environment. As he wisely observed, « we live in a time of extraordinary change… [and] on issues of global concern, we will mobilize the world to work with us and make sure other countries pull their own weight ». In other words, the current complexity of the international game requires from States to develop circumstantial alliances in order to safeguard their interests. Such a plea for coordinated international action is as urgent as the challenges that States are increasingly facing represent existential threat for the entire humanity. Among these challenges stands the Non-proliferation issue in general, and specifically the international political crisis over Iran's nuclear program. After the signing of the historic agreement on the Iranian nuclear program on July 14, 2015, international reactions were almost unanimous on the merits of the diplomatic outcome regarding the Iranian nuclear crisis. Yet this political equation keeps one main dark sides. How come such a major political crisis was resolved in a complex and uncertain security environment (Syria, Yemen), without raising the ghosts of the past (Iraq and Libya) or compromising regional strategic alliances? The answer to this question involves inexorably the decisive role played by third actors. However, if the Non-proliferation goal appears to be the most desired wish of third parties, it is also true that their bilateral relations have not always been harmonious. This modest intellectual work has therefore the main goal to provide a satisfactory and comprehensive answer on the constructive process that led to the diplomatic resolution of the Iranian nuclear crisis, with a particular emphasis on the decisive role played by third actors, mainly China and Russia. 1
