Iranian authorities intend to benefit from the emergence of a multipolar world in order to escape an imposed isolation.

Exchanges are also growing with India and China, based on common energetic and commercial interests. Eventually, the moderate position of these countries regarding the nuclear issue seems to give some coherence to the Iranian strategy.
