What is the history of America and Iran? Why are both countries opposed to each other? Know in detail -
Why did the relations between America and Iran sour ?
The reason for the sourness in the relations between America and Iran is not a coincidence. Rather, the relations between America and Iran started deteriorating in 1979. There are many main reasons for this. In 1953, America and Iran together overthrew Iran's Prime Minister Mohammad Mussaddiq and helped Shah Reza Pahlavi to come to power. With the help of America, he became the Prime Minister of Iran.
In 1979, Iran's Prime Minister Ayatollah Khomeini came to power and during his rule, Iranian students attacked the American embassy and held 52 American diplomats hostage for about one and a half years. In 1980, a war broke out between Iran and Iraq. America helped Iraq in this. America gave military and economic help to Iraq's dictator Saddam Hussain, which weakened Iran. In 1988, America accidentally shot down an Iranian passenger plane in which 290 people were on board. After this incident, the relations between America and Iran worsened further.
In 2002, America said about Iran that it is the axis of evil and it is making nuclear weapons to spread unrest. America imposed strict economic sanctions on Iran, due to which Iran's economy went into a pit. After that Iran started supporting terrorist groups against America. Iran also called America the Great Satan. Whereas he himself supports the terrorist groups Hezbollah, Hamas and Haiti and considers supporting them legitimate.
When Donald Trump became the President of America for the first time, during his presidency, America killed Iran's General Qasim Suleimani in a drone attack. General Qasim Suleimani was the head of the Kudsh forces of the Revolutionary Guards. The Americans said that he was among those who attacked the American army in the past. In return, Iran attacked many military bases of America.
Different stance of both the countries on Israel
Apart from this, America and Iran have different stances on Israel. Iran is strongly against Israel, it does not even consider it a country. Iran wants to root out Israel. Whereas America is always ready for Israel in every way. Israel and Iran are staunch opponents of each other. Whereas America and Israel are firm friends. America has supported Israel in every situation and whenever there is trouble.
2015 US-Iran Nuclear Agreement
Earlier in 2015, a nuclear agreement was signed between the US and Iran. This agreement was signed between the five permanent member countries of the United Nations, America, China, France, Russia, Britain and Iran. The objective of this agreement was that Iran would ban its nuclear weapons and in return America would remove economic sanctions from Iran, but in 2018 Trump broke this agreement and got out of it. He said that this agreement cannot stop Iran from developing nuclear weapons and Trump again imposed economic sanctions on Iran, which further increased the tension between America and Iran.
Conclusion:- Relations between America and Iran have not been good since before. Recently, the statement of the US President Donald Trump was that if Iran is not ready to negotiate a nuclear deal, he will impose second tariff on Iran. If Iran does not agree to negotiate a nuclear deal, then he will not do so. He hopes that as a country, their life will be long and successful. No, I have other options. I would prefer to negotiate a nuclear deal instead of adopting other options. In response to this, a statement has also come from Iran. According to the report of Tehran Times, Iran's President Masoud Pezeshkian has said that he will not negotiate directly with America. We have sent our reply to the US President through Oman. He is ready to negotiate behind the scenes.
