Reza Pahlavi, the exiled heir to the now-defunct Iranian throne, tells Newsweek that the bloody unrest in his home country can only be solved by removing the regime in Tehran.

Iran is being convulsed by its worst unrest for 40 years, with cities across the country paralyzed by thousands of anti-government protesters.

Pahlavi said the current turmoil is indicative of widespread anger at the government in Tehran, and that the only solution is a rehabilitated secular democracy—whether or not he is directly involved.The protests in our country are driven by a broad-based, grassroots desire to replace this regime.

We have known for forty years that the regime's only priorities are safeguarding and expanding its own power and control, including enriching itself. This massacre is not surprising. It is rather what one expects when such a regime feels threatened. This undated photo shows Reza Pahlavi—the exiled heir to Iran's defunct monarchy—giving a speech. Pahlavi told Newsweek that the current unrest in Iran is a direct reaction to the authoritarian regime in Tehran.Is there any legitimate opposition in Iran that can be trusted in this regard? U.S.

That said, I am eager to return to Iran and I will always be there for our people to defend their fundamental and inalienable rights against any and all forces foreign or domestic. I intend to be of assistance in any way that I can to provide proper guidance in our nation's critical transition to a secular democracy.The future system of government will be subject to intense debate in the constitutional process.

Therefore, my concern and that of the Iranian people is getting rid of this regime. The people don't chant in the streets against sanctions, they chant against this regime in hundreds of cities across the country.I do not tell Americans how to run their country, my focus is Iran. I know that any deal or negotiation with this regime and which ignores the Iranian people and their desires and demands are illegitimate.

But the determining factor in Iran's future will be the Iranian people not foreign policies, as I have always told our people. To that end, if any nation wants to deal with Iran it must deal with those who hold the answers to its future: the people, not the regime.

He do have title Prince Reza Pahlavi, as his father never abdicated and Prince Reza don't insist on being celled Prince but courtesy should be granted to very popular Prince who was called upon by nearly all larger demonstrations in pest 2 years.

He better shut the hell up. that was not exile, their ran away with our belongings and the main reason for to day's mess. US must be happy to have him there, so keep it, invite the rest of them too.

Trumps New ClubForCriminals “ KAOS “ is now recognized by the WorldOfCriminals ... All the bad actors, Putin MBS the Iranians and every MurderingTyrant except for ShortManKim accept the fact that Trump and the Russians lead the World in Criming ImpeachTrump NOW!

Same Shah whose behaviour turned an exiled Ayatollah Khomeini into a rock star?

And, the Democrats want to get rid of him. Well, we must protect the Clinton / Kerry legacy at all costs.

PahlaviReza rezapahlavikingofiran

LOL. How bout he return the billions his family stole from the Iranian people. Traitor

Ofc Reza Pahlavi aka the Shah’s son called the nuclear deal “disastrous.” He isn’t qualified to speak for all Iranian people though. Iranian ppl, like any other demographic are not monolithic.

One dictator loves another dictator. Imagine that.

Trump sanctions targets nothing 'Iranian': it is aimed at the so-called Islamic Regime which happens to have hijacked Iran.

Dear Newsweek , thank you for your concern about Iran. please note that the only real opposition to the Iran regime is Reza Pahlavi. Please have more interview with him in these critical days of Iran. Thanks and best Regards🙏🌹✌️

YESSSSSSSS

The Mullahs' regime has lost its legitimacy forever with the bloody suppression of the protesters. The Iranian people are in the worst economic situation under the Islamic rule . The prince is the only hope of the Iranian nation for deliverance from forty years of misery.

Reza Pahlavi is our leader Long live the king 💚👑❤️

Iranian people are screaming in the stadiums and in the streets, saying King of Iran come to Iran

👏👏🖒

Instead of wasting time and money to reform or even change the Islamic regime's approach, which is pointless, support the Iranian people and recognize the opposition leader Prince RezaPahlavi. RegimeChange in Iran is the only way to calm the Middle East and the world.

1) DavidBrennan100 knows well that the late ShahOfIran was NEVER deposed. His Majesty passed away in exile and he never resigned. The Crown Prince PahlaviReza sworn RoyalOath in Oct31th 1980 and based on Constitution1906 we know HIM as the Shah of Iran...👇

Prince PahlaviReza is a true leader& a human rights advocate who never stopped defending Iranians who have been taken hostage by this regime for 40 yrs. The IRI regime is an illegitimate regime which does not represent us and it must GO! WeStandWithPahlavi IranRegimeChange
