Reza Pahlavi: Background and Political Role
Reza Pahlavi is the eldest son of Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, the last monarch of Iran, and Farah Diba. Following the Iranian Revolution, the Pahlavi family went into exile.
Today, Reza Pahlavi positions himself not merely as a monarchist figure but as an advocate for:
- Secular democracy
- Human rights
- National sovereignty
- Free elections in Iran
He has repeatedly emphasized that the future political system of Iran should be determined by the Iranian people—not imposed by ideology or external forces.
