Implementing your plan
1. Given your plan set out in the simulation (Iran's nuclear ambitions was the topic), what tactics are most appropriate for achieving these various goals? Why?
2. Given the current political climate, what are some of the obstacles to achieving the goals of the plan? Politics? Economics?
3. From your experience in the simulation, and the Rosati article, how can stress and personality impact policy-making? Give a few examples of presidents from the Rosati article.

Tactics To Achieve Goals
Based on the set-out plan in the simulation, the available tactics that would work well to achieve the set goals include inspecting the uranium enrichment, accounting for the production of plutonium, International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) inspection, economic sanctions, and missile and conventional weapon restriction. However, the IAEA inspection would serve to achieve the most goals for this undertaking. First, there should be a re-arranged moment of access to nuclear sites among citizens only and partial enforcement of other protocols. Secondly, the IAEA should also access the areas within the first 90 days after a suspicious activity has been detected. Third, there should be 24-hour access to every nuclear site, even those belonging to the military bases. Finally, the IAEA regulations under the Code 3.1 should be enforced and allow the IAEA to access sites within 45 days following reporting of suspicion.. This strategy will attempt to strengthen the role of the IAEA in mitigating the dangers of Iran’s nuclear ambitions as the body is responsible for the promotion of peaceful use of atomic energy and prevent the use of the same in the military.[Syracuse University. “ Joint action plan: negotiations on the Iran nuclear deal.” E-PARCC.

Obstacles To Achieving The Goals Of The Plan
In the current political climate, the IAEA faces several obstacles in achieving the goals of this plan, both in political and economic spheres. IAEA has a mandate to prevent the spread of nuclear weapons. This calls for increased technical measures to assure the international community that such nuclear materials will solely be used for peace-keeping processes. As the body continues to invest in technologies, tools and processes, and human resources, it needs to identify smart investments that will enable IAEA to attain its objectives in safeguarding populations. However, e...
