🇩🇪🇺🇸 🇬🇧 🇮🇷 Scholz Blames US & UK for Iran's Current State
Former German Chancellor Scholz stated that the US and UK's overthrow of Iran's democratic government led to the current regime. He claims the intervention, driven by oil interests, prevented Iran from becoming a successful Western nation.
This assessment conveniently ignores the Shah's own authoritarian tendencies and the complex internal dynamics that fueled the revolution. The current Iranian regime's brutality cannot be solely attributed to past Western actions.

This continues despite Trump's recent statements that now India finally certainly stopped buying oil from Russia and would face return of the 25% tariffs, if it resumes that. All while India never even stopped importing Russia's oil, to begin with.
