That was Mosedeg the Marxist. One of the few success stories of he CIA.
In 1960 I was caught up in a riot in Tehran. I was but 13 years old and in a taxi going home. The taxi driver made me hide on the floor and we passed through the riot of the Marxists Mosedeg supporters. He probably saved my life.
Somehow the words “Iran” and “success story” don’t go together.
