Mohammad Mosaddegh: was the Prime Minister of Iran from 1951 until being overthrown in a coup d ' état in 1953. His administration introduced a wide range of social and political reforms but is most notable for its nationalization of the Iranian oil industry, which had been under British control since 1913 through the Anglo-Persian Oil Company ( APOC / AIOC ) ( later British Petroleum or BP ). Mosaddegh received his Licence en Droit as well as his Doctor of law from the University of Neuchâtel in Switzerland.

Mohammad Mosaddegh or Mosaddeq (, *), also Mossadegh, Mossadeq, Mosadeck, or Musaddiq ( 16 June 1882 – 5 March 1967 ), was the democratically elected Prime Minister of Iran from 1951 to 1953 when he was overthrown in a coup d ' état orchestrated by the British MI6 and the United States CIA.

Mosaddegh was removed from power in a coup on 19 August 1953, organised and carried out by the United States CIA at the request of the British MI6 which chose Iranian General Fazlollah Zahedi to succeed Mosaddegh.

In July, Mosaddegh broke off negotiations with AIOC after it threatened " to pull out its employees ", and told owners of oil tanker ships that " receipts from the Iranian government would not be accepted on the world market.

The plot, known as Operation Ajax, centered on convincing Iran's monarch to issue a decree to dismiss Mosaddegh from office, as he had attempted some months earlier.

Mosaddegh managed to flee from the mob that set in to ransack his house, and, the following day, surrendered to General Zahedi, who was meanwhile set up by the CIA with makeshift headquarters at the Officers ' Club.

In retrospect, not only did the CIA and the US underestimate the extent of popular discontent for the Shah, but much of that discontent historically stemmed from the removal of Mosaddegh and the subsequent clientelism of the Shah.
