Abstract
Will the cooperation between Iran and the US prevail for a longer period of time in Middle Eastern strategic issues? The answer may not be simply: ‘Yes or No’. The answer may have various dimensions such as Syrian crisis, where both countries have a divergence of interests, Yemen’s political turmoil, which again a point of divergence for the US and Iran. Role of Hezbollah and Iran’s support to such kind of organizations in the region, which has been declared as a terrorist organization by the international community may not allow both countries to cooperate in the region. This study tries to focus on the nature of convergences and divergences between the two states over these regional issues in near future. Moreover, the study discusses the term ‘new détente’ in the Middle East.
