“…Additionally, the increased gun-based violence, Islamophobic and racial bigotry incidences of domestic politics in the US have not shown a reignition of the American Dream and liberal peace (Dodge 2018;Cox 2018;Deudney and Meiser 2018). Simultaneously, however, it is a logical fallacy to subscribe to the US's unilateral worldview about protracted sanctions and nuclear peace prescription as the only viable option against the Iranian state of suffering and limited options of overcoming domestic underdevelopment due to limited foreign relations (Gartner 2020;Gracia 2021;Fayazmanesh 2008;Fawcett and Payne 200).…”

“…Furthermore, over the past four decades, Iran has managed to maintain an established order, safeguard its geoeconomic interests, and become a sphere of influence in the Middle East and Central Asia. On this premise, it is not unreasonable to suggest that Iran, under international law, has earned its right of freedom of will (Gartner 2020;McCrudden 2008).…”

“…According to scientist Frank Von Hippel, the US envisaged that if Iran was loaded with LEU at five thousand centrifuges, they might generate enough weapongrade uranium for a few bombs in just one year. Von Hippel and his scientific team suggested limiting the LEU to only two hundred kilograms whilst compromising Iran's five thousand centrifuges (Gartner 2020). The JCPOA deal aimed to limit Iran's nuclear enrichment capability in exchange for lifting US and UN sanctions.…”

The US-Iran nuclear deal offers a unique opportunity that could potentially change the course of international relations ending decades of offensive yet ineffective foreign policies toward states' harmony. By rebuilding the security in the Middle East as we enter a new multipolar era, the US-Iran nuclear deal will likely determine the future of the world balance of power, in which Iran could tilt the scales. A successful outcome will ensure Iran exits forty-three years of financial, political, military, and technological isolation, consolidating its status as a regional influencer. On the other hand, the US will have the chance to manoeuvre its survival as a superpower despite the gradual expansion control of Russia and China in the Middle East and further afield. Given the continued hiatus of the US's selective memory of what is deemed reasonable and harmful moral judgement when justifying sanctions, we need to consider a more harmonious and diversified worldview paradigm in the international nuclear deal and peace process. Concentration upon current news developments in Vienna and Tehran and, in conjunction with the analogy of the two famous speeches of Franklin D. Roosevelt and John F. Kennedy, this article seeks to demonstrate how these universal principles of freedom, dignity and independence are the underlying factors for the US to remain good moral power but not implemented in the current negotiation with Iran.
