The author focuses on the peculiar format through which the EU managed Iran's nuclear issue: a 'lead group' consisting of France, Germany and the UK and the High Representative for EU foreign policy (E3/EU). The experience of the E3/EU lends credibility to the claim that lead groups give EU foreign policy direction and substance. The E3/EU set up a negotiating framework that worked as a de-escalating tool, a catalyst for Security Council unity and a forum for crisis management. They inflicted pain on Iran by adopting a comprehensive sanctions regime, but did so only having secured US commitment to a diplomatic solution. Once the deal was reached, they defended it vigorously. The E3/EU may have been supporting actors, but their achievements were real. .Palgrave Studies in European Union Politics,2662-5881EuropePolitics and governmentInternational relationsSecurity, InternationalEuropean PoliticsForeign PolicyInternational Security StudiesEuropePolitics and government.International relations.Security, International.European Politics.Foreign Policy.International Security Studies.327.174Alcaro Riccardoauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut597183BOOK9910300499903321Europe and Iran’s Nuclear Crisis2268348UNINA03769nam 22008293u 450 991097467400332120240516044812.01-136-82719-60-203-83113-6(CKB)2670000000099294(EBL)684051(OCoLC)764572029(SSID)ssj0000607925(PQKBManifestationID)11355867(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000607925(PQKBWorkID)10590675(PQKB)11232912(MiAaPQ)EBC684051(EXLCZ)99267000000009929420130418d2012|||| u|| |engur|n|---|||||txtccrChemical Warfare during the Vietnam War[electronic resource] Riot Control Agents in Combat1st ed.Hoboken Taylor and Francis20121 online resource (217 p.)Description based upon print version of record.0-415-87644-3 Cover; Chemical Warfare During The Vietnam War: Riot Control Agents in Combat; Copyright; Contents; Acknowledgments; 1.

The short, readable account follows the US program as it progressed from a focus on the humanitarian aspects of non-lethal weapons to their use as a means of augmenting and enhancing the lethality of traditional munitions. It also presents the efforts of the North Vietnamese to both counter US chemical operations and to develop a chemical capability of their own.Chemical warfareChemical warfareGases, Asphyxiating and poisonous - War useGases, Asphyxiating and poisonous -- War useRiot control agentsRiot control agentsVietnam War, 1961-1975 - Chemical warfareVietnam War, 1961-1975 -- Chemical warfareVietnam War, 1961-1975Chemical warfareChemical warfareWar useRiot control agentsGases, Asphyxiating and poisonousRegions & Countries - Asia & the Middle EastHILCCHistory & ArchaeologyHILCCSoutheast AsiaHILCCChemical warfare.Chemical warfare.Gases, Asphyxiating and poisonous - War use.Gases, Asphyxiating and poisonous -- War use.Riot control agents.Riot control agents.Vietnam War, 1961-1975 - Chemical warfare.Vietnam War, 1961-1975 -- Chemical warfare.Vietnam War, 1961-1975Chemical warfare.Chemical warfareWar use.Riot control agents.Gases, Asphyxiating and poisonous.Regions & Countries - Asia & the Middle EastHistory & ArchaeologySoutheast Asia959.70438Ellison D.
