The event was organized by the opposition coalition The Munich Circle. The participants demanded a peaceful and democratic transition of power in Iran and called for the current leadership to be held accountable for repression and violence.
Before the start of the rally, Reza Pahlavi himself expressed the opinion that the time for change in Iran's political system has come. He noted that the recent protests in the country demand not reforms, but a complete regime change.
Addressing U.S. President Donald Trump, Pahlavi emphasized that Iranians appreciated his support and are counting on assistance from the United States.
At the same time, he added that he does not seek to restore the monarchy or return to the throne. His goal is to enable the Iranian people to choose their leadership independently.
Similar protests also took place in other cities around the world, such as Toronto and Los Angeles.
Nevertheless, the Iranian opposition remains fragmented, and Pahlavi faces criticism for his views on certain foreign policy issues and for his stance on the legacy of his father's rule.
