Abstract


AbstractThis article explains the foreign policy of the United States towards Iran after the Arab Spring. Specifically, this article discusses foreign policy during the days of Donald Trump and Joe Biden. The method used in this research is descriptive analytical. Then to describe the discussion objectively, researchers used the Foreign Policy Analysis (FPA) approach. This approach is used to answer the question of how the US foreign policy towards Iran after the Arab Spring? The findings of this study indicate that there were differences in policies during Trump and Biden tenure. During Trump's time, the US withdrew from the JCPOA and imposed maximum pressure sanctions on Iran. Then during Biden’s period, the US tended to be more gentle towards Iran by trying to get Iran back to nuclear negotiations without applying maximum pressure. This is certainly a good hope for the political constellation in the Middle East.Keywords: Foreign Policy Analysis, JCPOA, Maximum Pressure, the Middle East  AbstrakArtikel ini menjelaskan tentang kebijakan luar negeri Amerika Serikat terhadap Iran pasca Arab Spring.
