Abstract:

The authors of this report state that despite Iran's destabilizing influence in the international arena, investors from around the world continue to supply vast sums of money that not only prop up the regime, but also serve to embolden it. To address these concerns, they offer the following: a review of some notable measures being used in an attempt to change Iranian behavior; an analysis of Iran's international trade links; a sampling of additional economic and political measures available to the international community to demonstrate its displeasure with Iranian behavior.
