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. . 410 0$aPalgrave Studies in European Union Politics,$x2662-5881 606 $aEurope$xPolitics and government 606 $aInternational relations 606 $aSecurity, International 606 $aEuropean Politics 606 $aForeign Policy 606 $aInternational Security Studies 615 0$aEurope$xPolitics and government. 615 0$aInternational relations. 615 0$aSecurity, International. 615 14$aEuropean Politics. 615 24$aForeign Policy. 615 24$aInternational Security Studies. 676 $a327.174 700 $aAlcaro$b Riccardo$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0597183 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910300499903321 996 $aEurope and Iran?s Nuclear Crisis$92268348 997 $aUNINA
