USA and Iran: Why Is There Conflict?

USA and Iran: Why Is There Conflict?

While the USA and Iran are not in an official war, their relationship has been full of tension and proxy conflict for decades. Key reasons include:

Nuclear weapons: The U.S. fears Iran may develop nuclear weapons. Iran says its program is peaceful. The U.S. left the 2015 nuclear deal in 2018, which increased tensions.

Regional power struggle: Iran supports groups and militias in the Middle East (like in Iraq, Syria, and Lebanon) that the U.S. sees as dangerous.

Historical anger: In 1979, Iran's Islamic Revolution overthrew a U.S.-backed ruler. Soon after, Iranian students took U.S. diplomats hostage. Since then, both sides have distrusted each other.

Military strikes and sanctions: The U.S. has often placed sanctions on Iran, and there have been military incidents — like the U.S. killing of Iranian General Qasem Soleimani in 2020.
