The global politics of the situation won't allow any significant reduction as Iran and others will take it as an invitation to increase their aggression which is viewed as a worse long term outcome for the region by the state department. Short of revolution in Iran I don't see their calculation on that changing anytime soon.
Remember when Trump blew up the Iran deal.
