Mexico Expropriation Seen as Iran Precedent in Oil Fight
Washington reports that Mexico’s 1938 seizure of 17 foreign oil firms, 11 American, could serve as a precedent for Iran’s plans to take over Anglo Iranian Oil. Officials note Iran faces greater risks due to Soviet threat, European dependency on Iran oil, and weaker Iranian technical capacity. Mexico’s five-year negotiation culminated in a $23.996 million settlement in 1947 with 11 U.S. firms, without arbitration.
