Summary: | This research aims to analyze the effectiveness of the United Nations Security Council
(UNSC) role in resolving Iran's nuclear case. In addition, it also analyzes the role of the
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) as a specialized agency under the Security Council
(SC) which has the relevant authorities for such cases, and examines some of the provisions of
international law in the United Nations (UN) Charter, the Statute of the IAEA and the Non-
Proliferation Treaty (NPT) provisions. This study attempted to correlate the above provisions of
international law with the reality on the ground made by the executive organs of the UN Security
Council and IAEA.
It is a research on the legal interpretation (interpretation of law) that tries to find a clear
and comprehensive answers about the history of the case by the legal interpretation of some
provisions of international law relating to the case. Data research in this study is based on study
of literature. In the literature study it was analyzed and reviewed to the legal decisions, books
and other documents related to the problem under study.
The results of the research revealed that in practice there is lack of effectiveness in the
implementation of UNSC responsibility. All rules of international law in the UN Charter, the
Statute of the IAEA, and the provisions of the NPT does not run efficiently as a result of the
interests of big countries which are in fact members of the permanent council. In the end, the
discourse of reform which has been echoed will not be realized as long as there is no goodwill
and cooperation of major countries.
