Features: Today, the United States and Iran, which are hostile to each other, once had a very close bilateral relationship before 1979, spanning 38 years from 1941 to 1979. This book, through a wealth of materials on U.S.-Iran relations, provides a detailed introduction to the development of the relationship between the two countries during this period, from "indifference" to "close" and then to "hostility." It points out that the essence of their close relationship was one of control and dependence, and that the development and changes in bilateral relations between countries depend entirely on the pursuit of national interests and the competition of national strength.
