Legacy of 1979 The U.S. cut off diplomatic ties with Iran over the 1979 storming of the U.S. Embassy in Tehran. U.S. diplomats were held hostage for more than a year. Since then, name-calling, accusations and finger-jabbing lectures by U.S. and Iranian leaders largely have defined the relationship. “Eventually the U.S. and Iran will have to engage across the board on a whole range of issues if they are to make progress,” said Robert J. Einhorn, a senior adviser at the Center for Strategic and International Studies and former assistant secretary of state for nonproliferation. “The Iraq issue is one on which many people have assumed some commonality of interest because at a certain level the Iranians want stability,” just as Americans do, although for different reasons, Einhorn said.
