| Title | How a secret CIA operation in 1953 set the stage for decades of tension between Iran and United States | Source | Times of India |
| Description |
 US-Iran hostility stems from a 1953 CIA-backed coup which removed Prime Minister Mossadegh. Britain's oil dispute with Iran triggered the crisis and led to economic pressure. The Shah's rule, supported by the US, fostered growing opposition and anger. This historical distrust fueled the 1979 revolution and subsequent US embassy hostage crisis. Ongoing tensions persist over Iran's nuclear program and regional activities.
