Abstract
The nuclear programmes of North Korea and Iran are
perceived to be a threat to global/US national security. In
order to meet this situation, various counter-proliferation
initiatives, (CPIs) have been launched mainly by the US.
These initiatives are aimed at halting, slowing down and
dismantling the nuclear programmes of DPRK and Iran. The
comparative studies of these CPIs on North Korea and Iran
offer contrasting conclusions; unsuccessful for DPRK and
partially successful for Iran. However, the Iran nuclear deal
has raised the hopes that trustworthy, meaningful and
mutually beneficial diplomacy can still be possible to make
counter-proliferation efforts a success.
