Reza Pahlavi Urges CPAC to Support Iranian Regime Change and Reject Negotiations

Exiled Iranian Crown Prince Reza Pahlavi addressed the Conservative Political Action Conference to advocate for the complete removal of the current Iranian government. He told the audience that the regime cannot be reformed because venom is in its DNA. Pahlavi warned American leaders not to strike deals with the current leadership and instead called for renewed street protests. He told supporters that a free Iran is not a fantasy. While Pahlavi received a warm reception from the capacity crowd, some attendees expressed concerns about the potential domestic costs of foreign conflict. Most speakers and audience members favored internal regime change over direct U.S. military intervention.
