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.
