Final Ucl
There is seemingly an internal divide at the White House at to exactly what President Obama's stance on Iran is. According to the latest speculation both Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and Vice President Joe Biden are calling for a tougher stance however officials are rooting for a more cautious approach.
Obama has so far taken a soft approach given the political tensions in Iran in the aftermath of the elections.
Obama has promised a different approach to US foreign policy and after the hard line taken in both Iraq and Afghanistan military threat to accomplish political might seemingly does not work,
With the US showing a greater focus on diplomacy and soft power Iran have been given an opportunity to re-evaluate internal affairs and this is a large shift from the Bush era.
The question that remains is to what extent does Obama's vision of soft power allows foreign nations to undermine western political ideals. A change in policy has allowed Obama an opportunity to discuss and negotiate with Iran; something his predecessor did not believe in.
Following the elections Iran is still in political turmoil with citizens taking a hard line stance, Obama's critics have questioned is his caution too cautious?
The situation in Iran is tentative given the nation's nuclear aspirations, its proximity to Iraq and the state of the political landscape. Currently the Iranian government is trying to block all external sites so that protesters attempts can be curbed.
In a positive light the reaction of Republican leaders can be praised as they has spoken out against the violence and conduct of the elections; this at least shows that the US and the world are not simply willing to stand by.
