The Global Business and Economics (GBE) program hosted Brian Hook, US Special Representative for Iran and Senior Policy Advisor to the Secretary of State. The conversation focused on current US sanctions strategy regarding Iran, and he outlined the Trump administration’s rationale behind both the withdrawal from the Iran Nuclear Deal and the maximum pressure campaign.
Mr. Hook addressed many questions posed by participants in an at-capacity room which included AC staff and fellows, diplomats, and senior representatives from the private sector. Amb. Daniel Fried moderated.
