Since 2015 the United States has been a signatory of the historic nuclear agreement with Iran known formally as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), which was also agreed by other P5+1 countries. JCPOA is the achievement of the U.S. and other P5+1 countries' negotiations with Iran regarding the limitation of Iran's nuclear program. JCPOA is also known to be the vital instrument to reduce Iran's capabilities regarding its aggressive behavior and malign activities, creating destabilization in the Middle East. However, in 2018 the United States government decided to withdraw its participation from the JCPOA. As we know, this decision had an impact on Iran's behavior, which several times violated the contents of the JCPOA agreement even though they did not leave the agreement. We are also witnessing the impact of this decision increase the conflict between the US and Iran in recent years. This research aims to explain the rationale of the U.S. decision to withdraw from the JCPOA nuclear agreement with Iran in 2018. This research using the foreign policy decision-making framework model by Charles W. Kegley and Gregory A. Raymond. This concept focuses on explaining factors of foreign policy decision-making in three sources of analysis and the process of foreign policy-making based on rational choice.

Significance Before the inauguration, Congress will focus on confirming Biden’s nominees to key foreign policy and national security posts. Confirming Biden’s picks is now easier since the Senate will soon switch to Democratic control. Impacts Biden will involve Congress more than Trump did in foreign policy decision-making. Achieving consensus in foreign policy will not be easy, for instance regarding re-entering the JCPOA with Iran. Biden will increase the attention paid to non-traditional security threats in foreign policy, including climate change. Unpicking last-minute Trump foreign policy moves will be rapid in some cases, slow in others.

Xi Jinping’s diplomacy relies on certain institutional changes related to the foreign policy decision-making process. National Security Commission (NSC) was established at the 3rd Plenary Session of the 18th Central Committee in November 2013. The paper analyzes the rationale behind this decision, personal composition and main tasks of the NSC. The author argues that further evolution of the National Security Commission does not exclude its transformation into a dual party-state institution in charge of foreign policy and national security. This move will reshape the structure of power distribution in PRC.
