Exiled prince urges Trump to invest in Iranians, not nuclear deal

May 16, 2026, 21:01 GMT+1

Exiled Crown Prince Reza Pahlavi said on Saturday Donald Trump should be persuaded to focus on political support for the Iranian people rather than striking a deal with the Islamic Republic.

Addressing the Tech x Future of Iran summit with technology experts, Pahlavi argued that Iranians “did not give 40,000 lives just to end up with a nuclear agreement," referring to the victims of the January crackdown on Iranian protesters.
