Prince Reza Pahlavi, on Saturday, November 7, at the gathering of Iranians in Frankfurt, Germany, called his countrymen inside and outside the country "light" and said that this light will defeat the darkness of the Islamic Republic. At this gathering, which was held at the same time as the 2026 Freedom Award ceremony of the Friedrich Naumann Foundation, the prince said: "You are not brilliant; you who have gathered in this city today, you are not. Iranians who live in Germany in all the cities of this country, we will remove. You Iranians, who stood in different countries in our country, a million people, you support different countries in the world, for many months in the world. Our countrymen in Iran, they are the same light that will defeat the darkness of the Islamic Republic. Prince Reza Pahlavi, who spoke at the event accompanied by Lady Yasmin Pahlavi, said in reference to the award he received on behalf of the Iranian people, "This medal of honor, although it belongs to them, is dedicated to the brave people of Iran."
