I don't know it, but I definitely consider it.

How did the U.S. have an interest in the nationalizations of those companies in other countries?

They were fighting a war against those countries that were trying to nationalize those industries because US companies owned the industries.

It goes back to the IMF giving BS loans around the world and when the nations couldn't pay it back, they had to let companies privatize their industries. Then, democratically elected leaders wanted to take back these privatized industries so they got killed in plane crashes and whatnot and replaced by dictators.
