The One Mistake America Keeps Making With Iran — And Tehran Knows It | Prof Jiang Xueqin

For more than forty years, the United States has tried sanctions, diplomacy, military pressure, and negotiations to change Iran's behavior. Yet Iran's nuclear program has advanced, its regional influence has expanded, and its deterrence capabilities have grown stronger. Why does the same strategy keep failing? In this video, we break down the fundamental misunderstanding at the heart of American Iran policy: Washington has often assumed that Tehran is primarily motivated by economic prosperity, while Iran's leadership is actually optimizing for regime survival and strategic security. We explore the six structural reasons this mismatch persists, how Iran has learned to exploit American political cycles and shifting red lines, and why many analysts believe this is not simply an Iran problem but a deeper challenge to the way the United States approaches long-term geopolitical competition. Watch until the end to understand why this forty-year story may hold lessons far beyond the Middle East.
