US hopes to thwart the China-Iran alliance by mixing carrots and sticks to draw Tehran into a long-term dialogue on issues of concern to the US and its allies.

More dexterous diplomacy towards Tehran should mix carrots and sticks to draw Iran into a long-term dialogue on issues of concern to the United States and its allies, according to National Interest.

The policy implication of this view--if one accepts "strategic competition" as the guiding principle on China--is that the Biden administration should "test the opposite premise" of isolating Tehran, "by restoring nuclear diplomacy, lowering regional tensions, and forging new arrangements." Crucially, to accomplish this vision, a "fast timeline" of re-joining the 2015 Iran deal is necessary--but far from sufficient, writes Lyes Mauni Jalali for the National Interest.

Earlier, Iran had completely pivoted towards its "Look to the East Policy" after the withdrawal of the US from the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action in May 2018 and imposition of new sanctions on Iran by Trump's Administration and after these developments Tehran lost hope to normalize relations with the West and marched eastward.

Jalali said that Iran's "Look to the East policy" strategy aims to strengthen Iran's strategic cooperation with Russia and China.

On the other hand, incentives imply a rebuke of the policy of isolation. As it relates to Iran, economic integration (primary sanction relief) and political integration, in exchange for verifiable political ends should be the guiding diplomatic principle, according to National Interest.

Iran is also a pivotal player in Iraq, Lebanon, and Yemen, and has a key cultural foothold in Afghanistan, notably amongst the Dari-speaking population (Afghan dialect of Persian) including the Hazaras (Persian-speaking and of Shiite faith), chipping away at Russia's cultural dominance of Central Asia.

US is declining power with major demographic issues. Will be within 20years and USA will be balkanised.

What confuses me about the American cautious approach with Iran is why are they willing to do the carrot and stick approach with them?.... Why not just the stick like with North Korea?.....

Or even with Pakistan... America seem to walk all over the Pakistani nation.... But with Iran they treat them with caution....

Why?... What is our about iran that has America scared or confused???

US think developing non-Western countries' governments are just tupid. Ad if the US can turn them on and off at will, as easy as cleaning up San Francisco slums.

Maybe they learn. US went all stick with NK, and NK responded with its own red button as big as that of Biden's.

Independence, freedom of thought, courage and internal strength plus the religious factor that gives Iran the ideological edge. I Ask you this question, why couldn't Indians defeat Jinnah by logic and through bullets while knowing the fact that Indians were in an stronger position?

USA is too weak ideologically, as of now all of their standards have failed e.g. democracy, liberalism, capitalism, imperialism, life style etc. America is like a sinking ship considering its huge internal problems from racism to Multi cultural stupidity, from its cosmetic debt to its divided society. USA is an ideology that sticks to somethings like LGBTQ to say that i still exist, i am still relevant, i can introduce humanity with new standards, look at me, i seek your attention.

A pathetic country with a pathetic ideology. No moral standards, destroyed families, racism hit every corner of the country and above all, it is losing against a simple pandemy.

If people cannot see US is declining, then they are blind.

But I have one silly question for the US.
Does the Iranians trusts them?
