Iran
Since 1979, the United States' international relations with the Islamic Republic of Iran have been shadowed by bitter contempt and dismay. In a world growing through globalization and increased international law, foreign policy with the State Departments list of "rogue" states is remarkably important. Since the Clinton administration's signing of the Iran- Libya Sanctions Act and George W. Bush's 5-year extension of the act in 2001, there has been little progress in the establishment of "friendly" relations between the states. There is a long hard road to be fought before any leeway can be achieved. Both countries have much to gain from the emergence of Iran.

Iran was considered "the most active state sponsor of terrorism in 2000," by the State Department. The Caspian/Central Asian energy routes through Iran is a great example.
