The man Britain called for cold execution.
🔹Evan marks the execution and death of Dr. Hussein Fatmi, the foreign minister in the government of Dr. Muhammad Mossadegh.
🔹Due to his opposition to the influence of the courts and foreign powers, he became a key figure in Western diplomatic circles.
🔹One lesser-known document related to Fatami is a letter from Sam Pal, a senior British diplomat.
🔹On September 30, 1953 - about a month and a half after the coup on August 28 - he wrote about the Mossad and its allies: "Execution in cold blood... It might not be a wise decision for Mossadegh; However, if Fatami is caught, this might be the best response for him. ".
He continued to emphasize: "As long as these people remain alive and in Iran, there is always a risk of a counter-coup. Decisive action is needed."
