Economist Jeffrey Sachs delivers a blistering critique of US policy toward Iran, warning that Washington is attempting a “replay” of the 1953 coup that toppled Mohammad Mosaddegh. Sachs argues Iran, a centuries-old civilization, will not bow to external pressure or regime change efforts. He also slams Donald Trump’s rhetoric, calling it dangerously aggressive and unprecedented. His remarks come amid rising tensions in the Iran conflict and growing debate over US influence in the Middle East.
