You cannot be more wrong. You seem to think british were all good people making deals here and there. If iran rejected the deal at that time also 1901 they would have been captured. Deals were made by "threats". get it?No, twisting back facts, when others twist them is my hobby.
The facts here are that the deal was made 1901. Way before Great Britain had any control over Iran.
Iran would get 50% share of the company, and 16% of the profits, without investing a penny.
Oil was found 1908, after tons of money was spent by the British, and nothing by Iran.
Great Britain occupied Iran during the war, but left 1921. Deals were not renegotiated during that time.
The deal was renegotiated several times later, giving Iran more and more, until Iran decided to grab it all, and Great Britain resorted to supporting a coup.
Both examples of ”might is right” reasoning as stated in my first comment.
Example of todays time can be of US. Though this country doesnt occupy any country but can make "deals" giving threats to other countries. If denied sanctions, coup and other measures.
