History
The ROTPI's history is traced back to February 1964, when a group of young members of the Tudeh Party of Iran became dissatisfied with the party's leadership over siding with the Soviet Union during the Sino-Soviet split.[1] The group maintained that Tudeh was reformist (in contrast to being revolutionary) and claimed that it wanted to revive the defunct Communist Party of Persia.[2] The base of its core membership was abroad, made up of students studying in Western Europe.[1]
