Security is the most important goal and concern of any government, without which there will be no progress and development in a society. In fact, the mutation and evolution of society will not be possible without considering security. In this regard, the most basic dimension of security is military security, to ensure this type of security, the country has a proper and codified defense strategy is a key condition. Therefore, one of the main components of an effective defense strategy is for the country to benefit from advanced and deterrent military-weapons capabilities in order to ensure national security and interests. One of the issues that can be effective in the direction of international security is the issue of disarmament and arms control; However, since in the international arena, treaties relating to disarmament and arms control have been developed by world powers in the national interest, it is essential that these treaties be viewed from a critical perspective. To this end, the Islamic Republic of Iran, as an active regional and trans-regional actor, considering the importance of disarmament and arms control in order to ensure security and national interests, has tried to actively participate in international processes, not only from To prevent the unequal enactment of laws, but to provide the necessary and favorable environment for the realization of the country's interests. Findings of the article show that the Islamic Republic of Iran has adjusted its defense strategy based on conventional deterrence due to its values, scholastic principles and Islamic-Iranian beliefs, upstream sources and documents. Therefore, in this regard, the Islamic Republic of Iran has rejected any production and use of weapons of mass destruction (nuclear, chemical and microbial) and has based its military authority on upgrading conventional military capabilities with a defensive approach.
