The U.S. President at the time, Jimmy Carter, immediately applied
economic and diplomatic pressure on Iran: oil imports from Iran were
ended on November 12, 1979, a number of Iranians in the U.S. were
expelled (some of whom were unrelated to the crisis or the new Iranian
government), and around USD 8 billion of Iranian assets in the U.S.
were frozen on November 14, 1979. Carter pledged himself to preserving
the lives of the hostages, but beyond the initial measures he could do
little.

In February of 1980, the Iranian government issued a set of demands in
return for freeing the hostages. They demanded the return of the
former Shah to Iran, and certain diplomatic gestures including an
apology for prior American actions in Iran (including the U.S.-aided
coup against Prime Minister Mohammed Mossadegh in 1953) and a promise
to not to interfere in the future.

Shortly after the election, with the assistance of Algerian
intermediaries, such as Abdulkarim Ghuraib, successful negotiations
began between the U.S. and Iran. On January 20, 1981, the day of
President Reagan's inauguration, the hostages were freed in exchange
for the unfreezing of 8 billion dollars worth of Iranian assets and
immunity from lawsuits Iran might have faced (the hostages were
released minutes after the presidency passed from Carter to Reagan).
This added to the nation's celebration of Reagan taking the
presidency. They spent 444 days in captivity. The hostages were flown
to Frankfurt am Main Air Force Base in West Germany, where they were
received by former President Jimmy Carter (as an emissary for the
Reagan administration), and from there they took a second flight to
Washington, D.C., where they received a hero's welcome.

Kenneth Taylor, former Canadian ambassador to Iran, lectured on the
unprecedented role that Canada played during the hostage crisis.
Canada provided fake Canadian passports to six American Foreign
Service employees who had escaped from the embassy, and was able to
smuggle the Americans out of Iran after 79 days. For the enormous
risks taken by Taylor and by the Canadian government, the former
ambassador received the United States Congressional Gold Medal and the
Order of Canada.

Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United
States of America in Congress assembled, That (a) the President of the
United States is authorized to present, on behalf of the Congress, to
Ambassador Kenneth Taylor, a gold medal of appropriate design in
recognition of his valiant efforts to secure the safe return of
American Embassy officials in Tehran. For such purpose, the Secretary
of the Treasury is authorized and directed to cause to be struck a
gold medal with suitable emblems, devices, and inscriptions, to be
determined by the Secretary of the Treasury. There are authorized to
be spent from already appropriated funds not to exceed $20,000 to
carry out the provisions of this subsection.
