The US stopped talking to Iran under the pnut farmer. diplomatic relations ended with the invasion of US territory, and when war was declared on the US by Iran. A state of war has existed since 1979, a fact ignored or incomprehensible by the Democrats even when it happened. " The shocking seizure of the American embassy and its staff in Tehran on November 4, 1979, placed U.S.-Iran relations firmly in the deep freeze. Whatever hopes existed on either side for a rapprochement after the Shah’s departure at the start of the year were quickly doused.
