nuclear deal

Nonproliferation pact negotiation

A nuclear deal is an international agreement governing the development, limitation, or elimination of nuclear weapons or nuclear energy programs.

The term gained prominence with the 2015 Iran nuclear deal, formally the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, which limited Iran's nuclear activities in exchange for sanctions relief: The administration withdrew from the nuclear deal.

Such agreements typically involve multiple nations and extensive verification measures.
