The son of Reza Pahlavi, the Shah of Iran who was overthrown in 1979, who lives in the US, has said that he is ready to return to the country “at the first opportunity” and is already preparing for this.
In an interview with Fox News, he also said that his task is to lead the transition process, “ensure complete transparency,” and prepare the conditions for free elections so that citizens can “freely choose their leaders and determine their future.”
According to Western media reports, mass protests in Iran have been ongoing since late December 2025 and have been accompanied by increased security measures and communication restrictions, including internet outages.
The Norwegian Nobel Institute has stated that the Nobel Peace Prize cannot be transferred, shared, or revoked after the winner has been announced, commenting on statements by Venezuelan opposition leader Maria Corina Machado about her willingness to “transfer” or “share” her award with US President Donald Trump.
The institute emphasized that “the decision to award the prize is final and remains in force forever,” and that the rules of the Nobel Foundation do not provide for a mechanism for transferring the award to another person.
A study published by Business Wire, citing a US survey (online, SurveyMonkey; men and women aged 22-40), showed that 69% of American men believe that the fear of being considered “creepy” (terrible, repulsive) affects how they interact with women, and 44% of men said that this fear reduces the likelihood of such interactions.
At the same time, some media outlets, discussing anxiety when meeting in person, cite data suggesting that women’s demand for offline dating may be higher than men assume: one such report states that 77% of women aged 18-30 would like men to meet more often in real life (68% of women aged 30+ are also mentioned).

According to Serbian Economist, real estate prices in Serbia are market-driven and not “inflated,” said Ervin Pashanovich, a member of the board of the Association of Real Estate Agents of the Serbian Chamber of Commerce and Industry (Privredna komora Srbije).
According to him, the real estate market in the country remains “free” and without interference, and price levels are confirmed by demand. He noted that the average price per square meter of housing in Belgrade is about €2,400, with attention often focused on the most expensive projects, although there are different price levels on the market.
Pasanovic also pointed out that the majority of purchases are made by citizens seeking to resolve their housing issues, rather than investors, since, in his estimation, rental yields imply a long payback period: an apartment costing €100-150,000 can be rented for around €600 per month, which corresponds to a 24-30 year return on investment.
He added that the share of buyers purchasing housing with loans has reached a record 36%, and the share of foreigners among real estate buyers in Serbia is about 2%.
Pasanovic also commented on the application of the law on simplified accounting and registration of property rights, noting that the possible entry into the market of some previously unaccounted properties, in his opinion, will not lead to a noticeable decrease in prices, since a significant part of them are not located in central areas.
According to data from the Republic Geodetic Authority of Serbia (RGZ), in the third quarter of 2025, the average price of apartments on the secondary market in Belgrade was €2,691 per square meter, and in new buildings, €2,598 per square meter.
The RGZ reported that the total volume of the Serbian real estate market in the third quarter of 2025 was estimated at €1.8 billion with 30,511 sales contracts, and apartment transactions accounted for about 60% of the total market value (€1.1 billion).
