Iranian Crown Prince Reza Pahlavi has called for a 'Global Week of Action for a Free Iran,' scheduled to take place between July 4 and July 9. This initiative coincides with the Iranian regime's planned burial of former supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and marks six months since the beginning of widespread protests against the regime, which Pahlavi described as "a massacre."
Global Week of Action for a Free Iran
During the Week of Action, Pahlavi stated that Iranians worldwide would gather to "show the world the true face of Iran and to honor the eternal memory of the fallen heroes of Iranโs Lion and Sun Revolution." He claimed that over 40,000 Iranians have been killed by the regime since the protests began. Pahlavi directed a clear message to the American people and government, urging them to "stand with the Iranian people" and to "not deal with terrorists."
a massacre
The campaign's start also aligns with the United States' Independence Day, and gatherings are planned outside U.S. embassies globally. Pahlavi encouraged Iranians within Iran to participate covertly by recording videos at grave sites and writing messages on walls.

Pahlavi reiterated his strong condemnation of the recent Memorandum of Understanding between the U.S. and Iran, labeling it "morally wrong and strategically misguided." He argued that any agreement with the "criminal Islamic Republic" contradicts the values of the United States and the free world. Pahlavi pointed to the execution of two protesters shortly after the MoU was signed as evidence of the regime's nature, stating, "This is the consequence of making a deal with this criminal regime."
Our message to the American people and the US government is clear: stand with the Iranian people. Do not deal with terrorists. Choose the people of Iran.
