The eighth and final installment of the Edgerton Series on Iran and Turkey, featuring a discussion on the future of U.S.-Iran relations.

The United States' withdrawal from the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (the Iran nuclear deal) has darkened prospects for the U.S.-Iran relationship. The reinstatement of U.S. sanctions, “the toughest sanctions regime ever imposed,” according to the White House, has not only damaged Iran’s economy but has swept up U.S. and European businesses eager to capitalize on a new market for their goods. Join the Pacific Council as we explore an Iranian perspective on the U.S. withdrawal and reinstatement of sanctions.

What do the future of U.S.-Iran relations look like?
