The US and other Western countries imposed sanctions on Iran in response to the revolution, which has had a negative impact on the country's economy and isolated it from the international community. Additionally, the revolution also fueled sectarian tensions in the region, leading to conflicts with neighboring countries and contributing to instability in the Middle East. Overall, some may argue that the revolution ultimately did not lead to the democratic and prosperous future that many Iranians had hoped for, but instead resulted in a repressive regime and negative consequences for the country.
