Tel Aviv – Reza Pahlavi, the son of Iran's last shah, called Wednesday during a visit to Israel for "maximum" international backing for the protest movement that rocked the Islamic republic following Mahsa Amini's death.
"I'm...
here to explore how can we cooperate in helping the Iranian people in their
campaign for freedom," Pahlavi said at a news conference in Tel Aviv
alongside Israeli Intelligence Minister Gila Gamliel.
Pahlavi,
who lives in the United States, represents one of the many components of Iran's
foreign-based opposition but has failed to gain unanimity among the diaspora.
His
father was overthrown during the 1979 Islamic revolution, which transformed
Israeli-Iranian ties from a close alliance under the shah to bitter rivalry
nowadays.
Iranian
authorities have accused Israel and other foes of the Islamic republic of
fomenting the unrest that followed Amini's death in custody in September after
her arrest for an alleged breach of strict dress rules for women.
Pahlavi
argued "international support" is key for the protest movement to
succeed in "putting an end to the existing regime".
"Parallel
to... a campaign of maximum pressure" of sanctions against Tehran,
"I've been calling... for a campaign of maximum support" for the
Iranian people, Pahlavi said.
He
argued such backing would give ordinary Iranians "the right tools to
overcome the challenges they have, facing the regime that... has been extremely
brutal and repressive".
Hundreds
of people were killed, including dozens of security personnel, and thousands
were arrested in connection with the protests, which Iranian officials labelled
"riots".
Pahlavi
is accused by some of having failed to distance himself from the authoritarian
rule of his father, though he has insisted over the years he is not seeking a
return to monarchy.
Asked
about Pahlavi's visit to Iran's arch-enemy Israel, Nasser Kanani, spokesman for
Tehran's foreign ministry, said: "The person you speak of is not worth
talking about."
