How the US gave Iran its first nuclear kit 72 years ago, and then MIT trained its scientists

Amidst escalating tensions, the US finds itself in a complex situation with Iran's nuclear program. Ironically, decades ago, the US initiated Iran's nuclear journey through Eisenhower's "Atoms for Peace." This program provided Iran with its first research reactor and enriched uranium. Later, Pakistan, China, and Russia contributed to Iran's nuclear advancements, despite the 1979 revolution halting US cooperation.
