Iran Has No Plans To Normalize Relations With U.S.

The diplomatic ties between the two countries were severed after the 1979 Islamic Revolution when a group of armed students captured the U.S. embassy in Tehran, seizing over 50 embassy staff who were released only in 444 days. American intelligence-related documents were also made public then. The U.S. has been accusing Tehran of supporting militants in Iraq, Lebanon and the Palestinian Authority and saying the country's nuclear program is geared towards building an atomic bomb. The Islamic Republic has repeatedly blamed Washington for spying and preventing Iranian people from accessing civilian nuclear energy. http://en.rian.ru/world/20080106/95542749.html
