Pahlavi pleads with Trump to back off strike threat over Hormuz

Exiled Iranian Crown Prince Reza Pahlavi is urging President Donald Trump not to follow through on his threat to strike Iranian power plants should the regime refuse to reopen the Strait of Hormuz within the next day.

“Iran’s civilian infrastructure belongs to the Iranian nation and is the asset of a free Iran’s future,” Pahlavi posted on X. “I ask President Trump and Prime Minister Netanyahu to continue targeting the regime and its apparatus of repression, while at the same time preserving Iran’s civilian and vital infrastructure, which our people need to rebuild the country.”
