Iran’s nuclear programme began in the 1950s with US assistance under the Shah’s regime, having signed the Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) at the time. However, the trigger for the clandestine programme came after Iran suffered nearly 300,000 casualties in a war launched by Iraq in 1980 which was backed by Saudi Arabia and the United States. After the 1979 Islamic Revolution and subsequent geopolitical tensions, Iran’s nuclear activities raised international suspicion, particularly after an Iranian opposition group revealed undeclared facilities in 2002.
