President Harry S. Truman demanded that Russia withdraw its troops from Iran in 1946 because he wanted to uphold the principles of the United Nations and prevent the spread of Soviet influence in the region. The Iranian government had requested the withdrawal, and Truman viewed the Soviet presence as a violation of Iran's sovereignty and the agreements made during World War II. This stance was part of Truman's broader strategy to contain communism and assert U.S. leadership in international affairs during the early Cold War.
