Abstract

In early 2019, the Islamic Republic of Iran marked its fortieth anniversary, despite decades of isolation, political pressure, sanctions and war. Observers of its security policies continue to try and make sense of this unlikely endurance. Though there are significant disagreements about the Islamic Republic's thinking and intentions, virtually everyone agrees that its policies are fundamentally different from those pursued by their monarchical predecessors. This book offers a historically grounded overview of Iranian national security. The author argues that Iranian strategic thinking is perhaps best characterized by its dynamic yet resilient nature, one that is continually evolving and whose foundations were laid out decades ago. To understand Iran's national security thinking and policies today, one must examine them in their historical context. As the Islamic Republic enters its fifth decade, this book sheds new light on Iran's controversial nuclear and missile programmes, and its involvement in Afghanistan, Iraq, Lebanon, Syria and Yemen.

Abstract

Tehran's ability to fight by, with and through third parties in foreign jurisdictions has become a valuable and effective sovereign capability that gives Iran strategic advantage in the region. Tehran has possessed a form of this capability since the Islamic Revolution in 1979, but its potency and significance have risen sharply in the past decade, to the point where it has brought Iran more regional influence and status than either its nuclear or ballistic-missile programmes. This dossier provides an understanding of how Iran builds, operates and uses this capability. Based on original field research, open-source information and interviews with a range of sources, the dossier conducts an audit of Iran's activities in the principal regional theatres of Iraq, Lebanon, Syria and Yemen, and it reaches into Bahrain, Saudi Arabia and Kuwait. it includes an examination of Tehran's nurturing of groups such as the Houthis in Yemen, the Badr Organisation in Iraq, Hizbullah in Lebanon and Shia militias in Syria, and details related to recruitment, weapons supply, logistics and command-and-control systems.

Abstract

Cet ouvrage s'attache à décrypter le programme nucléaire développé par la République islamique d'Iran et le rôle joué par l'Union européenne pour faire face à cette crise. Portée par une habile coordination intergouvernementale des politiques étrangères de ses États membres, l'Union rejoint le rôle d'acteur que ces derniers voulaient lui voir jouer. Partant d'une initiative ad hoc développée en dehors du Conseil de l'Union européenne, l'Allemagne, la France et le Royaume-Uni en viennent à renforcer l'Union sur la scène internationale. Ces trois États membres, conscients des difficultés d'un consensus au sein du Conseil, vont devancer le processus de négociations puis le faire adouber par le Haut Représentant de l'Union. Ce dernier informera les institutions de l'Union et contribuera au consensus. Par ailleurs, l'Union européenne offre une plateforme de coopération qui tend à accroître le pouvoir politique de chaque État en tirant parti du poids économique de l'Union sur la scène internationale. Après six années de sanctions décidées par le Conseil de sécurité des Nations unies, auxquelles l'Iran s'adapte tout en les contournant, l'adoption de sanctions autonomes fortes démontre la détermination de l'Union européenne et amène l'Iran à composer. Incitative puis coercitive, l'action diplomatique déployée par l'UE3+1, puis par l'E3+3, vis-à-vis du nucléaire iranien s'est formée en raison d'un intérêt commun fort, celui de préserver la sécurité internationale en maintenant le régime érigé par le Traité de non-prolifération des armes nucléaires.
