In his post, Pahlavi said that while Iran’s leadership uses hostile slogans against the United States, ordinary Iranians see Trump as someone who has supported them.
He claimed that some people in Iran are even renaming streets in Trump’s honor, showing their hope for change and outside support.
The message was shared along with Pahlavi’s interview on Fox News, where he spoke about the current unrest and the future of Iran after the fall of the present system.
He said that once the current rulers are gone, Iran could become a strong partner for peace and stability in the region.
Pahlavi urged Trump to help Iranians “liberate themselves” and ended his message with the slogan, “Make Iran Great Again.”
His statement comes as protests and violence continue to shake the country.
