Iran Nuclear Agreement
Iran Nuclear Agreement (name redacted) Specialist in Middle Eastern Affairs (name redacted) Analyst in Nonproliferation October 4, 2016 Congressional Research Service 7-.... www.crs.gov R43333 Iran Nuclear Agreement Summary On July 14, 2015, Iran and the six powers that negotiated with Iran about its nuclear program since 2006 (the United States, the United Kingdom, France, Russia, China, and Germany— collectively known as the P5+1) finalized a Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA). The JCPOA is intended to ensure that Iran’s nuclear program can be used for purely peaceful purposes, in exchange for a broad lifting of U.S., European Union (EU), and United Nations (U.N.) sanctions on Iran. The JCPOA largely reflects what was agreed in an April 2, 2015, framework for the accord. The agreement replaces a Joint Plan of Action (JPA) interim nuclear accord in operation since January 2014. The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) and U.S. officials have indicated Iran is abiding by its commitments to the JCPOA. A resolution of disapproval of the JCPOA was not enacted by Congress by the deadline of September 17, 2015, set by the Iran Nuclear Agreement Review Act (P.L. 114-17). Iran’s legislature approved the agreement and the JCPOA formally took effect on “Adoption Day” (October 18, 2015), the date stipulated by the JCPOA as 90 days after passage of Resolution 2231 on July 20, 2015. On Adoption Day, the Administration issued provisional waivers for U.S. sanctions laws. Those waivers took effect—along with the revocation of some sanctions imposed by executive order—when the IAEA certified that Iran had complied with the initial set of nuclear-related requirements, and “Implementation Day” was declared by the P5+1 on January 16, 2016. -
