Mohammad Reza Shah Pahlavi launched a massive nuclear program in the 1970s to strengthen Iran's geopolitical position. The main question is what were the security implications of this program, both domestically and internationally? The present theoretical research, using historical, descriptive, and argumentative studies with an analytical approach, shows that this program, in line with development programs and with a view to territorial planning, initially began with a geoeconomic perspective with the aim of producing large amounts of nuclear electricity to diversify the fuel portfolio and avoid reliance on fossil fuels for the growing need for domestic energy consumption, To expand infrastructure as a key factor in Iran's economic development and influence in the energy market, and to become a political and security tool to increase Iran's power. The Shah's independent national policy was to use the country's geographical advantages to try to control nuclear technology, To complete nuclear fuel cycle, while increasing energy security, and by achieving the nuclear escape point, guarantee the maintenance of military superiority and the balance of power in the region by relying on nuclear technology, However, achieving such a capability faced challenges due to the vast changes in the region's geopolitical landscape, and it became a platform for future confrontation between Iran and the United States.
