US-Iran Relations Since 1979 Iranian Revolution: Conflicting vs. Overlapping Interests? Iran and the US have had many conflicts in the past 40 years, but we can find some interests that overlap in this relationship that could bring them to the negotiation table. This lecture will put light on these conflicts and overlapping interests.
