Description

The overthrow of nationalist prime minister Dr. Mohammed Mossadegh, who on his rise to power in 1951 tried to eliminate foreign domination of the Iranian economy, reassert national independence and improve the lot of the Iranian people. The coup d'etat against the Mossadegh regime in 1953 was engineered by the CIA and the British SAS, and installed the regime of the Shah, which ended in the revolutionary upheaval culminating in the Islamic Republic.
