The nature and type of enmity between Iran and the United States is different from the relationship between Latin America and the United States. The anti-imperialist nature defined in Iran after the Islamic Revolution was related to the adoption of the views of the Soviet Union and the extremist socialist left. This view created unprecedented conditions in the world, and based on this, it must be said that there is no country in the world like Iran. We can define this model as an isolationist defense model that has been more the result of defense against overthrow and in certain situations. With regard to the coup d'etat of 1332, we Iranians thought that the United States was always seeking intervention and overthrow in our country. This situation in Iran created the capacity for us to achieve an isolationist defense model against the United States, so at the beginning of the discussion we should know that the nature of the enmity between Iran and the United States is unprecedented in the world.
But the Latin American-American model of behavior is more based on the conflict between the rich and the poor than on the United States, and this view has given rise to the term North and South in these regions. This derogatory view is based on US military intervention at times in their history, as well as a top-down view of the United States. It may not be unreasonable to say that it is very likely that more than 50 percent of Latin American people have embraced American culture and that only a fraction of the elite is fomenting animosity between the two countries. It goes without saying that this animosity is more prevalent in Latin America in economic matters, theories of peripheral structure suggest that US companies are exploiting the Latin American people.
There are a number of leading countries in Latin America, such as Mexico, Chile, Colombia, and Peru, and these countries have developed deep and strong ties with the United States, and these good relations have existed throughout history. In contrast, countries such as Argentina should be mentioned. It has a pendulum relationship with the United States, which is nonviolent, and many disputes between the two countries are resolved through negotiations. Brazil also has a strong technical relationship with the United States, but in foreign policy discussions, we always see competition between the two countries. Of course, the two countries have a special position in dealing with the United States; Cuba and Venezuela are known as friendly countries of the Islamic Republic of Iran, but unlike other Latin American countries, they do not have a pleasant relationship with the United States. Cuba's model of hostility is somewhat similar to that of Iran, as subversive debates have always existed in the country and the United States pursues a hostile view in the country. In fact, the Cuban Communist Party, as well as the Americans, always analyze each other's behavior in a negative light. Venezuela, meanwhile, is in a different situation. Although it has experienced widespread tensions since Trump's presidency, it has always been keen to improve relations with the United States, but the United States has refused to do so peacefully because of human rights issues. In the meantime, it should not be forgotten that Iran's friendly relationship with Cuba is a stable one, but this is not the case with Venezuela, and given Venezuela's special structure, the country's leaders are able to gain concessions as soon as they feel they are negotiating. The possibility of negotiating with the United States may quickly turn their views around and change the relationship with the United States from hostile to friendly.
To examine the relationship between the two countries in more detail, we must go back to 1998. After 1998, when the Socialists came to power and Chavez came to power, these differences with the Americans became tense because the Americans were opposed to Ch چvez coming to power. The United States pursued a system in Venezuela that over time developed the view that Venezuela is the gas station of the United States; This relationship of the oil economy was a deep bilateral relationship that gave rise to a dual party structure in Venezuela. The structure supported US-Venezuelan oil exchanges, but that changed after Ch چvez came to power. Chاvez had socialist views, and at times the United States intervened in security and secrecy, these relations became strained. Gradually, Venezuela's relationship with the United States soured, with China, Russia, North Korea, and the United States opposed. Venezuela's distance from the United States caused changes in that political and security sphere; For example, when the Islamic Republic entered into nuclear negotiations with the United States, the relationship between the United States and Venezuela changed, and they lost their priority in dealing with Iran. Also, whenever a security issue arose such as the spread of drug trafficking, Venezuela refused to engage, and the United States and Venezuela became embroiled in strained relations.
