Secretary of State John Kerry has made it&nbsp;clear that for now Iran is not a welcome member. Iran, without which the coalition essentially becomes a Sunni front, can have a place at the table – and play a large and overt role in resolving the Syrian civil war – but only if it is willing to reach a deal to rein in its nuclear program.
美国强调建立反“伊斯兰国”地区联盟同样也是灵活的外交政策。国务卿约翰·克里已明确表示目前不欢迎伊朗加入。但没有伊朗的联盟实际已成为逊尼派阵线，伊朗本应参与谈判并在平息叙利亚内战中发挥更显著的作用。但这一切的前提是伊朗愿意签署协议控制其核计划。这样好的时机可谓前所未有。
