Abstract
Last week President Barack Obama and Iran’s President Hassan Rouhani shared a historic phone conversation, the first such high level contact between the two countries for more than 30 years. Alireza Ahmadian looks at the current state of the U.S./Iran relationship, and argues that while U.S. sanctions have had some part to play in encouraging rapprochement, the greater role of reformists and pragmatists in Iran’s government has also had a part to play.
