In this episode, the UCG students discuss the Iran Nuclear Deal. The Iran Nuclear deal, also known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, was a deal signed between Iran and the P5+1 countries in July 2015. The countries which included the United States, the United Kingdom, France, China, Russia, and Germany. The goal of the deal was to limit Iran's nuclear program in exchange for lifting economic sanctions on the country. On the global stage, this debate has brought up strains on non-proliferation efforts and has also had an implication on the global economy, as the lifting of sanctions could provide Iran with greater access to global markets and encourage foreign investment. However, the withdrawal of the US in 2018 has left the agreement's future in question. The deal and its future state will be analyzed from the perspectives of the Iranian regime, the EU, and the state of Israel.
