In the 1950s, US intervention in Latin America and the Middle East was characterized by a strong anti-communist stance, often leading to covert operations and support for authoritarian regimes. In Latin America, the CIA orchestrated coups, such as the overthrow of Guatemala's democratically elected President Jacobo Árbenz in 1954. Meanwhile, in the Middle East, the US sought to counter Soviet influence, exemplified by the 1953 coup in Iran that reinstated the Shah. These interventions aimed to secure American geopolitical interests but often resulted in long-term instability and resentment in the affected regions.
