Exiled Iranian Crown Prince Reza Pahlavi said Wednesday that if the Islamic Republic collapses, he will push for an abandonment of Iran’s military nuclear program, immediate recognition of the State of Israel, and an end to patronage of terrorist proxy groups across the Middle East.

Pahlavi, the son of the deposed Shah and a leader of the Iranian opposition in exile, released a four-minute video statement laying out the policies he will pursue if the current regime is toppled and he is placed in a leadership role of a future alternative government.

Laying out his vision for a new, pro-Western government, Pahlavi emphasized global cooperation, trade, and regional partnership, pledging to normalize relations with the US and recognize Israel, while distancing Tehran from terror groups allied with the Islamic Republic.

“In security and foreign policy, Iran’s nuclear military program will end,” Pahlavi said. “Support for terrorist groups will cease immediately.”

“A free Iran will work with regional and global partners to confront terrorism, organized crime, drug trafficking, and extremist Islamism. Iran will act as a friend and a stabilizing force in the region. And it will be a responsible partner in global security.”

In a nod to the Trump administration, Pahlavi said Iran would, under his leadership, recognize Israel as part of the Abraham Accords.

“In diplomacy, relations with the United States will be normalized and our friendship with America and her people will be restored. The State of Israel will be recognized immediately.”

“We will pursue the expansion of the Abraham Accords into the Cyrus accords, bringing together a free Iran, Israel, and the Arab world. A new chapter will begin, grounded in mutual recognition, sovereignty, and national interest.”

In place of the fundamentalist Shi’ite Islamic regime, Pahlavi said that the “new Iran” would be “secular” and “democratic.”

“The fall of the Islamic Republic and the establishment of a secular, democratic government in Iran will not only restore dignity to my people, it will benefit the region and the world.”

Pahlavi reportedly met over the weekend with President Donald Trump’s special envoy to the Middle East, Steve Witkoff, to discuss the ongoing unrest in Iran.
