Answer:

"Allowing a foreign leader medical treatment in the United States led to a hostage crisis in Iran."

Explanation:

The hostage crisis in Iran took place over a period of 444 days, during which a group of Iranian students took 66 diplomats and citizens of the United States of America (USA) hostage. The crisis began on November 4, 1979 and lasted until January 20, 1981.

On October 22, 1979, the Shah of Iran, Mohammad Reza Pahlevi, traveled to New York to undergo cancer treatment. On November 1, Iran's new leader, the Shiite Islamist cleric, Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, led an Islamist revolution seeking a new government, arguing that the Sah was a "puppet" of US interests and that it should be deposed to impose a new government, a republic of theocratic character.

On November 4, the US embassy in Iran was surrounded by a group of around 500 Iranian students who were followers of the Islamist revolution (although the numbers vary between 300 and 2000). Fifty-two Americans were taken hostage for 444 days (from November 4, 1979 to January 20, 1981), while six diplomats managed to escape from the embassy during the capture, who were taken hostage by the Canadian ambassador and his wife in his residence until his rescue (with a plan apart from the one designed for those who stayed at the embassy). President Carter called the victims of kidnapping "victims of terrorism and anarchy" and added that the United States was not going to give in to blackmail.
