Iran: Daily says US must formally apologize for 1953 coup d'etat
2002
Overview
Today, 19 August is the 49th anniversary of the US-orchestrated 28 Mordad, 1332 (19 August, 1953) coup that toppled the popular and nationalist government of former Iranian Prime Minister Mohammad Mossadeq and put back on the throne the exiled Mohammad Reza Shah Pahlavi. Dr Mossadeq is best remembered for his drive toward nationalizing Iranian oil. During his short tenure as prime minister, Mossadeq was continuously thwarted in his effort to implement his popular and nationalist policies by the British and American-supported Shah. When Dr Mossadeq finally took his case directly to the Iranian nation, the ensuing chain of events forced the Shah to leave the country and seek refuge in Europe.
