Mohamed Mosadek
Mohamed Mosadek was the democratically elected Prime Minister of Iran from 1951 until his overthrow in 1953. A key figure in Iranian history, he is best known for his efforts to nationalize the Iranian oil industry, which had previously been controlled by foreign interests. His policies and popular support made him a target for foreign intervention, particularly from the United States and the United Kingdom, which led to a coup that removed him from power and reinstated the monarchy under Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi.
