Belfer Center Programs or Projects: Preventive Defense Project

A Task Force sponsored by the National Security Initiative, a program of the Bipartisan Policy Center, released a ground-breaking report identifying the regional and global threats posed by a nuclear weapons-capable Iran and recommending a new, robust and comprehensive strategy designed to prevent Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons capability.

The report is the product of a high-level bipartisan Task Force led by former Senators Daniel Coats and Charles Robb, and including Ambassador Dennis Ross, Dr. Ashton B. Carter, and Steve Rademaker, three retired four-star generals and admirals, and other experts in nuclear proliferation and energy markets.  The report offers a blueprint for establishing an effective U.S. strategy toward Iran’s nuclear development and also offers a comprehensive source of information for policymakers, the public and the next President.

Full text of the report is available at Meeting the Challenge: U.S. Policy Toward Iranian Nuclear Development.
