Iran and International Dynamism during Rouhani's Presidential Term

The purpose of the present study is to examine the steps that Rouhani’s administration has taken in order to change and improve Iran’s international and regional position. As such, the elected President Hassan Rouhani and his cabinet have insisted that they will pursue a moderate and constructive foreign policy throughout their era. The main question to be addressed in this study is: what are the major factors contributing to Iran’s exit from International isolation during Rouhani’s presidential term? The results of the study indicated that the use of Elite cycle with Rouhani’s coming to power, the lift of sanctions by solving nuclear issue, and the improvement of economic situation constitute the major factors that can contribute to Iran’s exit from International isolation. Indeed, the eleventh government could realize Iran’s exit from international isolation by changing the uncooperative and hostile image of Iran among the West and the Arab world, staying away from diplomatic exaggeration, resolving tension, reducing pressure on the nuclear program and Iran’s economy through lifting sanctions.
