Reza Pahlavi's Meeting With Manoto TV Staff

Pahlavi has consistently said he does not seek a role as a future leader of Iran, and whether Iran's people chose a republic or monarchy to replace the mullahs is their choice. However, he does want the Iranian people to endorse him to help overthrow the Islamic Republic and lead the transition towards a secular democracy. Whoever Iranians then elect in a free and open referendum is up to them, he insists.
