The 1953Iranian coup d’état, known as the 28 Mordad coup, marked the beginning of the Shah’s absolute rule in domestic and foreign affairs. Despite the ardent efforts made on the part of the Shah to navigate the waters of a bipolar world and align the country with the United States, however, the beginning of détente in the early,ssignificantly improved the relations between Iran and the Soviet Union on political and economic relations.
The current research seeks to study, in a more detailed fashion, the developments in the Iran-Soviet economic relations from the beginning of détente, and aims at assessing the incentives behind the two countries’ drive for promoting economic relations. Since the beginning of détente and adoption of an independent foreign policy by Iran, though still an ally of the West, Iran maintained close ties with the US and, at the same time, pursued economic relations with the Soviet union; to this effect, Iran was determined to confine the relations to economic ties, while the Russian followed a policy of reducing Iran’s engagement with the Western block.
