Iran is well on the way to becoming the next nuclear-weapons state. What policy options does the United States have? How likely is the success of the European engagement effort? What will be the effect on the nonproliferation regime if Iran crosses the nuclear threshold? A panel of nonproliferation experts will discuss what is known about the Iranian nuclear program and propose strategies for deterring Iran from testing and deploying nuclear weapons.
