<entity_0> are bilateral relations between <entity_2> and the <entity_1>. The letter marked the first official correspondence between the governments of <entity_2> and the <entity_1> and established a precedent for the character of relations between them throughout the rest of the 1800s. <entity_2>'s cotton and silk exports to the <entity_1> increased significantly throughout the 1820s, making it more desirable for the latter to establish its own consulate. The <entity_1> consuls in <entity_2> were busy in their early years. Moreover, <entity_2> acts as the protecting power for relations and interests between the U.S. and Iran as the <entity_1> severed relations with Iran in 1980, during the Iranian Revolution and the Hostage Crisis. Between 1963 and 2015, <entity_2> acted as the protecting power between Cuba and the <entity_1>, until the embassies were re-established in Havana and Washington, D.C.. <entity_2> has an embassy in Washington, D.C. and maintains consulates-general in Atlanta, Boston, Chicago, Los Angeles, New York and San Francisco. The <entity_1> and <entity_2> signed three new agreements in 2006 that will complement the JEC. In July 2015, <entity_2> and the <entity_1> signed an organic food equivalency agreement; any product certified as organic in one country may be sold as organic in the other.
