Unrealistic Expectations for Iran
(Carnegie Endowment for International Peace) Mark Hibbs - Unrealistic expectations about the Iran deal need to be revised downward. Iran and the West will continue to have major differences whether or not there is a final nuclear pact. The November deal will not lead to a transformation of the West's relations with Iran, and the act of signing a deal will not mean Washington and Tehran have somehow overcome their multiple fundamental differences and become partners. The writer is a senior associate in Carnegie's Nuclear Policy Program.
