^{Published on 2025-05-14 20:00:41 - Time}

The Iran-Contra affair exposed how government officials can ignore democratic norms and practices.

The Iran-Contra scandal, which unfolded in the 1980s, significantly impacted American politics by revealing the extent to which the Reagan administration was willing to bypass Congress and public opinion to achieve its foreign policy goals. The scandal involved the secret sale of arms to Iran, despite an embargo, to secure the release of American hostages held in Lebanon, and the diversion of funds from these sales to support the Contra rebels in Nicaragua, which was explicitly prohibited by Congress. This led to a major political crisis, resulting in the indictment of several high-ranking officials, including National Security Advisor John Poindexter and Lieutenant Colonel Oliver North, although President Reagan himself was not charged. The scandal damaged the public's trust in government, highlighted the tension between executive power and congressional oversight, and raised questions about the ethics and legality of covert operations, influencing subsequent debates on national security and foreign policy.
