520			_aDiscussion of Iran's nuclear programme from three different perspectives - technical, narrative and diplomatic, which suggests that Iran may have achieved all that it wanted or intended with its nuclear capability, that is to say a nuclear hedging position. The paper presents the hedging concept and draws parallels with Japan, while also drawing attention to the impact of international pressure on Iran's nuclear weapons programme. Concludes by recommending realistic goals aimed at containing rather than rolling back nuclear programmes which will be acceptable at national and international levels.
