Résumé
International negotiations based on pure national interest cannot provide sustainable models for treaty-making when global issues, like nuclear weapons or climate change, are at stake. The Iran nuclear deal is a case in point as it was easily set aside by the Trump administration. Increasing risks of the deal failing and its likely consequences, proliferation of nuclear weapons and regional conflict, are bound to have negative repercussions for other treaty regimes hanging on a thread, like the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons. National interest is not an intelligent model for international treaty making in this context. Like in the falaj microcosms, the genuine accommodation of the interests of everyone is likely to produce durable outcomes. Serious engagement by all parties to the negotiation as well as reconciliation of past animosities are also necessary requirements for successful negotiation. The role of skilful mediators, drawing from best customary practices, becomes a requisite throughout the negotiation process.
