As King Charles visits President Trump in the White House earlier today, I thought it relevant to share these pictures of then-Prince Charles and Prince Pahlavi during the Shah’s state visit to the UK in 1975.

It’s sometimes overlooked that Prince Reza Pahlavi has spent his entire life interacting with the highest levels of State and some of the most well known figures of the last half century, representing the Iranian people at conferences, interviews, meetings with government and political representatives. I wonder if a future King Pahlavi and King Charles will discuss this old memory when the current crisis in Iran is over and a new parliamentary democracy like that in the UK takes its place.

Reza Pahlavi has been meeting Parliamentary members, dignitaries and others throughout Europe recently, and met with some Iranians in Italy who recounted personal or family experience of the 2026 protests earlier this year.

But the comment at the end of the video caught my attention. Reza Pahlavi reiterates the importance of continuing to bring the attention of the world to the need for removing the Islamic Republic regime from Iran, and then announced that when the decision is made to announce the final call, he would prefer to do it from inside Iran, and that he is ready to lay down his life for Iran’s liberation as well.

This is my personal take on it, but that leads me to think a city or portion of Iran will be liberated first, Reza Pahlavi will return and announce the call from inside Iran once the IR has been sufficiently degraded?

What do y’all think the implication of this is?

And can someone correct my Persian if this is incorrect? I’m not sure if the last word is “bezaram (بذارم)” or something else, and some of the other words that are more formal than what I usually would use.

روزی که قراره یک فراخوان نهایی داده بشه، خودم ترجیح میدهم از داخل ایران این فراخوان رو اعلان بکنم. من هم حاضرم جونمو در این نقطه بذارم.

As the lady said at the end “hichvakht bar nemigardim be aghab. Ya marg, ya azadi”.
