Abstract
Under President Ahmadinejad (2005-2013) and the dominance of following the revisionism and justice-seeking discourses in his foreign policy, Iran tended to unify and coalesce with ultra-leftist Latin American leaders with whom the sitting President shared discursive principles However, as Hassan Rouhani took office in 2013, Iran decreased interest in coalition with Latin American countries. The reason why during President Hassan Rouhani’s terms the Islamic Republic of Iran turned away from Ahmadinejad’s approach regarding Latin American countries in favor of digression and lack of relationship is a question that the present paper seek to answer through an explanatory method. Therefore, it is hypothesized that transformation at the level of policymaking resulted in the reduction of Islamic Republic of Iran's relations with countries of this region which in turn has changed and transformed the available sub-discourses in the arena of foreign policy.
