Dear families of those whose names have been immortalized in Iran's Lion and Sun Revolution, I am aware of what you have been through in recent months, and I know that alongside grieving your loved ones, you have also endured security pressures and the hardships of life. I want you to know: You are not alone. Your lives and health are precious to us. Your heroic children rose up for freedom and a prosperous future for Iran, and their names and sacrifices will live on in our national memory. Today, it is our duty to look after you. I ask Iranian psychologists, psychiatrists, and therapists to step forward to provide immediate, ongoing, and confidential support to the families of those whose names have been immortalized. I also ask all my compatriots not to wait for a request for help. If you know a family of one of those whose names have been immortalized, go to them; ask how they are, listen to their voices, and stay by their side. And I tell you: Asking for help is not a sign of weakness. In these difficult days, let us be by your side. Protecting one another's lives and health is also part of our struggle for Iran. Let us not allow any family to remain alone in this mourning and suffering. Let us hold one another's hands. Let us not leave one another alone. And together, let us bring Iran to the shore of salvation and freedom. Long live Iran, Reza Pahlavi
Translated from PersianCompatriots, the Islamic Republic has once again placed the cost of its incompetence, corruption, and warmongering on the Iranian people by raising the price of gasoline. As I said in my message of 31 Mordad, raising fuel prices when the people are under heavy economic pressure is a cruel act and a betrayal of the Iranian nation. I say to the Zahhakian regime and its missing leader: The poverty and economic pressure you have imposed on the Iranian people are the direct result of your destructive policies. The country's resources belong to the Iranian people, not to fill the pockets of mafias and not to finance terrorism and warmongering. Return the nation's plundered assets and cut off support for terrorists. Do not think that by killing tens of thousands of patriots you have managed to break the nation's will. The fire of the people's anger and protest has not been extinguished. A nation that has stood for freedom, prosperity, and a better future will not remain silent in the face of repression, corruption, incompetence, and the imposition of poverty. Long live Iran, Reza Pahlavi
Translated from PersianFrom the bottom of my heart, I thank the 160 political prisoners and the justice-seeking families inside Iran who, despite the heavy costs and dangers they have endured, have raised their voices so courageously. Your steadfastness is a source of respect and encouragement for me and for every freedom-loving and patriotic Iranian. As you have emphasized in your message, today more than ever we need unity within the framework of our shared principles, discipline, responsibility, and a focus on saving Iran, and no disagreement or side issue should distance us from this important goal. I believe that Iran's future belongs to all Iranians, and the path to reaching it lies in setting aside differences and standing together. This national solidarity is the powerful force that will ultimately make us victorious and free our beloved Iran. Long live Iran, Reza Pahlavi
Translated from PersianI was deeply affected and saddened by the passing of His Majesty Harald V, King of Norway. King Harald served the people of Norway and his country for more than three decades with a deep sense of responsibility, dignity, and unwavering commitment. In moments of joy and celebration as well as in days of profound national sorrow, he was a steadfast and unifying presence and a symbol of continuity and service to the nation. I extend my heartfelt condolences to His Majesty Haakon VIII, Her Majesty Queen Sonja, the royal family, and the people of Norway, who mourn their beloved king. King Harald’s kindness, humanity, and lifetime of service to his people will leave a lasting legacy. His name and memory will be honored by generations to come. Reza Pahlavi

I salute the people of Ukraine on their 35th anniversary of Independence. On this important day the people of Iran stand shoulder to shoulder with the people of Ukraine in their fight against aggression and occupation. Your solidarity with the people of Iran as they struggle for freedom will never be forgotten. We will always remember our friends. Slava Ukraini
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.
