Donald Trump’s regime change policy and the linkage of Iranian Protests 2022
The present paper seeks to examine the regime change policy of former U.S president Donald Trump and its link to the Iranian protests of 2022. It will discuss in detail the link between the United States’ actions and its aim to overthrow the Iranian regime. It begins by outlining Trump’s actions that led to the deterioration of Iran’s international standing, such as the withdrawal from the 2015 nuclear deal, the assassination of General Qassem Soleimani, and other economic sanctions. It then analyzes the causes and consequences of the 2019-2020 Iranian protests, and how they relate to the United States’ regime change policy. Lastly, the paper concludes by arguing that the United States has tried to use external and internal pressure to destabilize the Iranian regime, and that this policy has been largely unsuccessful.
The results of this research paper suggest that the Trump administration’s policy of regime change has had a detrimental effect on the Iranian economy and has led to widespread public discontent. Additionally, the policy has also led to increased tensions between the United States and Iran, as well as other countries in the region. Furthermore, the sanctions imposed by the Trump administration have had a devastating effect on the Iranian economy and have led to a sharp decline in Iran’s oil exports. Finally, the Trump administration’s attempts to overthrow the Iranian regime have also led to increased support for hard-line elements in the Iranian government, which has further exacerbated the situation in the country.
It will conclude the role of the United States in the Iranian protests in 2022, and the degree to which the U.S. is looking for to accomplish a regime change in the country in the course of its policy of utmost pressure. It will investigate the content of the sources listed above, as well as other sources, in order to better understand the U.S.’s policy towards Iran and its role in the protests. The thesis will examine the different aspects of the U.S.-Iran conflict, from its historical roots to the current policy of maximum pressure, in order to draw conclusions about the U.S.’s role in the Iranian protests and the potential outcomes of these protests.
