The Cold War (1947-1989), marked by rivalry between the United States of America (USA) and the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR), had the Soviet containment strategy as its central focus, especially in the Middle East, with an emphasis on Iran. The formulation of this strategy was influenced by Iran's strategic location, its presence in the oil industry, and Iran's expressed willingness to play the role of defender in the Persian Gulf, thus becoming a key player in US containment strategies. Documents from the United States National Security Council (NSC) played a crucial role in analyzing this relationship. Critical events, such as the Islamic Revolution of 1979 and the Iran-Iraq War of 1980, also impacted US-Iran relations. In light of this, the present research aims to fill gaps in the understanding of these interactions, examining official documents in detail and contributing significantly to the academic debate on Iran's role as a strategic ally of the United States in the region, providing critical insights into the role of geopolitical interests in forming alliances during periods of great international complexity
