This study assesses U.S. policy options, identifies a way forward, and considers how the United States might best mitigate the negative international effects of a nuclear-armed Iran. 410 0$aRand Corporation monograph series. 606 $aNuclear weapons$zIran 606 $aNuclear nonproliferation$zIran$xInternational cooperation 606 $aNuclear arms control$zIran 607 $aIran$xMilitary policy 607 $aUnited States$xMilitary policy 615 0$aNuclear weapons 615 0$aNuclear nonproliferation$xInternational cooperation. 615 0$aNuclear arms control 676 $a327.1/7470955 700 $aReardon$b Robert J$0899252 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910219981703321 996 $aContaining Iran$92009097 997 $aUNINA
