Here's How Trump Can Bring Iran Back to the Table

(Foreign Policy) Richard Goldberg and Jacob Nagel - Iran's rejection of talks with the U.S. makes sense for now. The toughest sanctions are not scheduled to return until November. That gives Germany, Turkey, Russia, and other countries doing business with Iran two more months to find workarounds that can help the regime survive. Key restrictions targeting civilian nuclear cooperation with Iran will return in November, too. Under U.S. law, the procurement channel to Iran established by the nuclear deal will be off-limits to all foreign companies, including banks and insurers. Stopping the sale of dual-use equipment will again become a U.S. priority. The U.S. should condition funding for the International Atomic Energy Agency on the termination of investments and technical assistance in Iranian nuclear projects, an end to IAEA-hosted seminars and conferences in Iran, and the removal of all Iranian employees from the agency. The IAEA must perform its core mission and investigate the sites, activities, research, and materials detailed in the recently discovered secret Iranian atomic archive. Richard Goldberg, a senior advisor at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies, was the lead Senate Republican negotiator for several rounds of congressionally enacted sanctions against Iran. Jacob Nagel is former head of Israel's National Security Council and national security advisor to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
