In this video, The Lallantop’s Kuldeep Mishra explained the reasons behind the Iran USA( United States Of America) conflict and the geopolitical power of Iran. The conflict between Iran and the U.S. is rooted in decades of political, ideological, and strategic tensions, with flashpoints dating back to the 1979 Iranian Revolution, which ousted the U.S.-backed Shah and established the Islamic Republic. This event dramatically shifted Iran’s foreign policy, positioning it in opposition to U.S. interests in the Middle East. The U.S. responded by imposing economic sanctions and supporting Iraq during the Iran-Iraq War in the 1980s, further straining relations. Over the years, the conflict has been marked by a series of escalations, including U.S. sanctions on Iran's nuclear program, which Washington sees as a threat to regional security. Iran, on the other hand, views U.S. presence in the Middle East and support for its rivals, such as Saudi Arabia and Israel, as attempts to undermine its sovereignty and regional influence. The 2015 Iran nuclear deal (JCPOA) provided a brief moment of diplomatic relief, but U.S. withdrawal from the deal in 2018 under President Trump reignited hostilities, leading to increased sanctions and military confrontations. The assassination of Iranian General Qassem Soleimani by the U.S. in 2020 further deepened the conflict, which continues to oscillate between diplomatic engagement and the risk of military confrontation.
Iran's geopolitical strength is further bolstered by its deep historical and cultural influence, dating back to ancient Persia, which has helped shape its identity as a regional power. Its ideological framework, centered on the Islamic Revolution of 1979, allows Iran to position itself as a leader of Shia Muslim populations across the Middle East, providing it with a unique ideological leverage, particularly in sectarian conflicts. Iran’s Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) and its elite Quds Force have been instrumental in expanding its influence through military and paramilitary operations, giving Iran significant sway in countries like Syria, Iraq, and Lebanon. Additionally, Iran's vast missile program, cyber capabilities, and growing partnerships with Russia and China further solidify its strategic autonomy, even as it navigates the complex web of international sanctions. Moreover, Iran has skillfully managed its relations with major powers, balancing diplomacy with defiance, especially in the context of its nuclear program, which keeps it at the center of global security discussions. Despite economic pressures, Iran's resilience, coupled with its strategic alliances and military assets, ensures its continuing relevance in both regional and global geopolitics.
