Abstract

The provisional agreement reached in Vienna by the P5 + 1 and Iran on 14 July 2015 has the hallmarks of a significant diplomatic achievement. It will now run the gauntlet of political scrutiny and be tested in implementation. The agreement is a triumph for Iranian President Hassan Rouhani and his foreign minister Mohammad Javad Zarif. Yet, Ali M Ansari argues, Rouhani now faces a domestic challenge no less difficult than the negotiations as he seeks to balance the aims and ambitions of hardliners and reformists in the political establishment and wider society.
