Soviet Propaganda Film - Iran, Tabriz 1945-46

The Russian (Tsarist) army occupied Iranian Azerbaijan in 1909, and again in 1912-1914 and 1915-1918 period,the Ottoman forces occupied her in 1914-1915 and 1918-1919 periods, the Bolshevik forces occupied Iranian Azerbaijan and other parts of Iran in 1920-1921,[17] and the Soviet forces occupied Iranian Azerbaijan in 1941, createing a very short-lived autonomous, Soviet-supported state in May 1946, which was dissolved after reunification of Iranian Azerbaijan with Iran in November of the same year.[18] . Azerbaijani provinces have played a major in the cultural and economic life of Iran in both the Pahlavi era as well as the Islamic revolution.

Following Germany's invasion of the USSR in June 1941, the United Kingdom and the Soviet Union became allies. Although a neutral nation, Reza Shah Pahlavi had brought Iran closer to Germany. This concerned the British who feared that the Abadan Oil Refinery, owned by the Anglo-Iranian Oil Company, might fall into German hands — the refinery produced eight million tons of oil in 1940 and was thus a crucial part of the Allied war effort. For the Soviets, Iran was a country of extreme strategic importance. The German Army (Wehrmacht Heer) was steadily advancing through the Soviet Union and there were few ways for the Allies to get desperately needed American Lend-Lease supplies to the Soviets.

With increasing German submarine attacks, as well as heavy ice floes and the coastal ice cap fast rendering convoys to Arkhangelsk impossible, the Trans-Iranian Railway seemed a very attractive route to transport supplies up from the Persian Gulf. The two Allied nations applied pressure on Iran and the Shah but this led only to increased tensions and pro-German rallies in the capital of Tehran. Reza Shah refused to expel the many German nationals residing in Iran, and denied the use of the railway to the Allies; this, along with the above strategic concerns, prompted Britain and the Soviet Union to launch an invasion of Iran on August 25, 1941.

Geography
Iranian Azerbaijan is generally considered the northwest portion of Iran compromising the provinces of Zanjan, East Azerbaijan, West Azerbaijan and Ardabil. It shares borders with the Republic of Azerbaijan,[11] Armenia, Turkey, and Iraq and a population of about 10 million. Azerbaijan is famous for its great natural beauty. There are 17 rivers and two lakes in the region. Cotton, nuts, textiles, tea, machinery and electrical equipments are main industries. The northern, alpine region, which includes Lake Urmia, is mountainous, with deep valleys and fertile lowlands.

The region is bounded in the north by Armenia and the Republic of Azerbaijan and in the West by Lake Urmia and Kurdish-inhabited areas of Iran, and in the East by the Talyshstan and Gilan

  • @maviinsan Şah ordusunu tarafından Güney Azerbaycanın Urmiye kentinde binlerce Türk yerli askerine herkesin gözü önünde tecavüz edilmiştir. Şuan o şehrin insanlarının bunun izleri açıkça belli oluyor. Güney Azerbaycan hükumetinin toprak ağalarından alıb dağıttığı köylülerin daha sonra sakaları cümle aleme ibret olsun diğe yakılmıştır.

    Tüm bunları yapan Türk Qacar hanedanını devirip başa gelen Fars Pehlevi hanedanı mensupları ve asırlardır içinde `Türke nefret` besleyen farslardır...

  • @maviinsan 2500 yıl kesilmeden süren `Fars devletçiliği` iddasını savunmak gerçeklere at gözlüğü ile bakan bir milletin ecdadına ihanetidir, özellile Anadolu Türklerinin `Acem` sevgisi buna örnektir.

    İsterseniz yukarıda anlatılan Güney Azerbaycan devleti milletinin akibetini anlatayım. Bu devleti kurnazlikla yıkan Şah ordusu Türkçe öğretmenlerini Türkçe kitaplarının üzerine atarak yakmıştır. Bu kitapların arasında şuan varlığından bile haberimiz olmayan kaç asırlık Türkçe eserler vardı.
