Resumo
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) was founded in 1957 to ensure
the safe and peaceful use of nuclear energy. Signed in 1968, the Nuclear Non-
Proliferation Treaty entered into force in 1970. Among its objectives, three basic
principles were established: (i) to nuclear States Party to the Treaty, the prohibition
of transferring nuclear weapons to any other state, not encouraging, assisting or
inducing the acquisition of such weapons; (ii) Non-nuclear weapons States Party to
the Treaty do not manufacture or acquire, in any way, such weapons; (iii) All States
accept the safeguards of nuclear material set forth by the IAEA. Safeguards are activities
where the IAEA verify whether or not a Member State is diverging nuclear
material or equipment from peaceful uses to nuclear weapons. In addition, in case
of non-compliance with the terms, sanctions enter as a way to inhibit such behavior.
In the last years, mainly during the decade of 2000, the Iranian nuclear program has
become the subject of controversy for international security. Country’s refusal to
halt the nuclear program has already prompted the United Nations to approve three
package of sanctions against Iran in December. 2006, in March 2007 and in March
2008. Despite these sanctions, Iran still did not allowed additional visits by IAEA
inspectors to sites associated to nuclear activities. In this work, the effectiveness of
NTP’s economic sanctions over Iran’s economy and its nuclear politic was evaluated.
For this purpose, economic indicators such as the unemployment rate, the inflation
rate and the GDP during the period from 2003 to 2017 were analyzed. The main
conclusion is that the economic sanctions applied to Iran, by the United Nation Security
Council were effective once, after the establishment of the sanctions, Iran’s
economy suffered a severe negative impact. However, from 2015, after the signature
of the Global Plan of Action, with the group of countries called P5 + 1 (China, United
States, France, United Kingdom, Russia and Germany), which agreed to withdraw
Iran’s sanctions once complied with IAEA standards, it can be observed a gradual
improvement in the Iran’s economic indicators.
