Does the nuclear deal with Iran presage a fundamental change in the relationship with the West, with
the eventual cessation of support for terrorism and regional meddling as its supporters fervently
hope, or is a discrete thing that will ultimately only enrich the country and empower it to be more of
a security threat in the future, as its detractors predict? This session will discuss and debate this key
question with global geopolitical implications.
