Tehran (The COW News Digital) Iran’s exiled crown prince Reza Pahlavi has claimed that the Islamic Republic is on the verge of collapse and revealed a detailed plan for a transitional government to be installed once the current regime falls.
In a statement shared on social media platform X (formerly Twitter), Pahlavi, the son of former Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, said the country is entering a decisive phase and that Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has “lost control.” He asserted that the end of the Islamic Republic is near and that Iranian citizens should not fear what comes next.
“We have a complete plan in place for a post-regime Iran,” said Pahlavi. “A transitional government will be established for 100 days following the fall of the current regime. After that, we will move toward forming a national democratic government.”
According to Pahlavi, all necessary preparations have been completed to ensure a smooth and stable transition. He emphasized that the proposed interim administration is designed to restore order, rebuild trust, and pave the way for democratic reforms in the country.
The former crown prince called on Iran’s armed forces and law enforcement agencies to withdraw support from the ruling government, which he described as discredited and nearing its end. “You must choose to stand with the people, not a regime that has lost legitimacy,” he urged.
His announcement comes amid intensifying tensions between Iran and Israel, with ongoing military escalations and rising internal dissent within Iran. Reza Pahlavi’s recent surge in online activity has gained widespread attention, especially after a video surfaced showing him visiting Jerusalem’s Western Wall, a deeply symbolic and politically sensitive location.
While critics question his political relevance, supporters of the exiled prince argue that he represents a unifying figure in a fractured opposition landscape. His push for a secular, democratic Iran has gained traction among some diaspora groups and reform-minded Iranians.
Pahlavi’s plan reflects increasing anticipation that major political change could be imminent in Iran, particularly if the ongoing geopolitical and internal crises continue to destabilize the regime’s hold on power.
The coming weeks will likely test whether these statements translate into tangible change or remain aspirational rhetoric in the face of a deeply entrenched clerical establishment.
