Iran's Exiled Crown Prince, Reza Pahlavi:

The price of the U.S. dollar crossed the 2,000,000-rial mark today. The dollar is now worth 28,571 times more than it was when the Islamic Republic came to power.

Nearly five decades of corruption, mismanagement, and incompetence under the Islamic Republic have brought poverty, economic decline, and isolation to the Iranian people.

Five decades of experience have made one thing clear: reform within the Islamic Republic is impossible.

Today, the Islamic Republic is driving Iran toward the edge of a cliff at ever-increasing speed.

It is now the duty of every Iranian, including government employees and members of the country’s civil service, to do everything possible to obstruct the regime’s destructive actions and weaken its ability to continue them, helping create the conditions for its removal and for saving Iran.

Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi:

They had planned for the disintegration of Iran. On the fourth day of the war, Trump called some leaders in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq. He called and talked to each one of them.

I called the Prime Minister of Iraq, and I warned that if the slightest threat against us comes from the Kurdistan Region of Iraq, we will react. Don't think we are busy elsewhere.

The regional authorities and Sudani himself assured me that they would never let this happen. They said, "we control them and won't allow it." Türkiye played an effective role, spoke with the Americans, and took very firm stances in this regard. A combination of efforts caused this conspiracy to remain unfulfilled.

It later became known that during a trip to Israel, Reza Pahlavi agreed on the disintegration of Iran. He said, "fine, the surroundings for you, and that central region, for example, I'll be the Shah."

He's delusional.

Reza Pahlavi:

"I am deeply saddened by the sudden passing of Senator Lindsey Graham, a steadfast friend of the Iranian people and a proud defender of freedom.

At moments when moral clarity was required, Senator Graham stood on the right side. When friends were seldom found, he stood alongside the people of Iran in their struggle against tyranny.

He used his voice to ensure that the voices of those fighting for justice were heard in the halls of power. His support for Iran’s Lion and Sun Revolution earned him the title “Uncle Lindsey” among Iranians. He will be remembered with profound gratitude and deep respect.

We extend our deepest condolences to Senator Graham’s family, loved ones, colleagues, and the people of South Carolina and the United States.

May he rest in peace and may others carry on the fight for freedom."

Reza Pahlavi on Western media:

"It appears to me more often than not that there's a disconnect between the world media, Western media, from the reality on the ground in Iran. That is stupefying for me. I saw that to some extent in Stockholm and I see another occasion, it looks like you guys are on another planet. You're not hearing what the people on the streets are saying."

Reza Pahlavi:

The United Kingdom has endlessly appeased the criminal regime in Iran. The Prime Minister speaks of protecting the innocent civilians of Iran but failed to act to help stop the regime’s massacre of 40,000 innocent Iranians in January.

Only an end to this regime - that brings terror to Britain’s own shores - will yield lasting peace and regional stability. Keir Starmer should follow in the footsteps of Churchill, not Chamberlain. He should support the Iranian people’s fight for liberty.

The Iranian people will remember who stood with them in their hour of need and who stood against them. There is still time for the Government to change course: prosecute the IRGC that slaughters innocents, expel the illegitimate regime's ambassador, and act to support the people of Iran.

Reza Pahlavi:

Iran is not the Islamic Republic.

Iran’s civilian infrastructure belongs to the Iranian people and to the future of a free Iran. The Islamic Republic’s infrastructure is the machinery of repression and terror used to keep that future from becoming reality.

Iran must be protected. The regime must be dismantled.

I ask President Trump and Prime Minister Netanyahu to continue targeting the regime and its apparatus of repression, while sparing the civilian infrastructure Iranians will need to rebuild our country.

With the support of the US and Israel, and above all the sacrifice of Iranian patriots, the hour of Iran’s freedom is at hand.

Long live Iran!

Reza Pahlavi:

My brave compatriots,

Salutations to you who, on the night of Chaharshanbe-Suri, stood steadfast and united in the face of threat and repression, and kept the ancient flame of Iran alight. You demonstrated that our national will is unconquerable, and that the flame of liberty and devotion to our beloved homeland shall never be extinguished.

Now, on this last Thursday of the year, I call upon you to visit the resting places of the eternal heroes of the Lion and Sun Revolution and all champions of Iran's freedom, and to show your solidarity with their families.

On the eve of Norooz, we renew our promise to the brave sons and daughters of Iran:

our promise to reclaim Iran,

our promise to bring glory to our homeland,

and our promise to build a future that is free, prosperous, and bright.

Long live Iran,
Reza Pahlavi
