jan 1, 1953 - Mossadeq's government ends (Parliament)

Description:

Even though Mossadeq was popular because he gave Iran his independence, the British and the USA used the fear of Communism to defeat him.
So under pressure the Shah dismissed Mossadeq and replaced him with a pro-Western Prime Minister.
