History

Historical Context

The Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, signed on 14 July 2015 in Vienna after roughly 20 months of P5+1 negotiations, capped Iran’s nuclear activities in return for sanctions relief. The United States exited the pact in 2018 and Iran declared its termination in October 2025. In May 2026, a Camp David summit revived the 2015 framework, aiming to restore limits and expand regional accords.
