Dear President Trump,
We, the members of The New Iran, supporters of Crown Prince Reza Pahlavi, and activists with more than two decades of political engagement both inside and outside Iran, wish to express our sincere gratitude for the warning you issued in the early hours of January 2 to the regime occupying Iran regarding its violent crackdown on peaceful protesters. Your message—together with the decisive action taken against Nicolás Maduro, the dictator of Venezuela—resonated deeply with Iranians who continue to risk their lives in pursuit of freedom, dignity, and national sovereignty. Since your warning to the Ayatollahs in Iran and the action against Maduro, the Iranian people have intensified their presence in the streets, demonstrating renewed resolve, courage, and hope in their struggle for fundamental change.
Since its establishment in 1979, the Islamic Republic has effectively held the Iranian nation hostage, systematically squandering Iran’s vast wealth and human capital to advance terrorism, regional destabilization, and ideological extremism. The overwhelming majority of Iranians—across generations, social classes, and even within elements of the regime’s own institutions—reject the legitimacy of this system and seek a fundamental transformation of their country’s political order.
Today, as on numerous occasions over the past four decades, the Iranian people have risen in open defiance of a regime rooted in a medieval worldview and sustained by a failed, leftist, and aggressively anti-Western ideology. In the most recent nationwide protests, Iranians have spoken with unprecedented clarity, openly calling in the streets for Crown Prince Reza Pahlavi and for the restoration of a nationalist political order. This call reflects not nostalgia for the past, but a forward-looking vision—one grounded in Iran’s authentic cultural identity, constitutional governance, the rule of law, and peaceful coexistence with the democratic world.
The collapse of the rule of the ayatollahs and the re-establishment of a sovereign, secular, and constitutional state in Iran—one that respects Iranian national identity while upholding universal democratic principles—would be fully aligned with the long-term strategic interests of the United States and its allies. Such a transformation would significantly weaken the global infrastructure of terrorism and contribute to lasting stability in the Middle East.
As an organization active both within Iran and across the Iranian diaspora, and as committed supporters of Crown Prince Pahlavi, we respectfully ask that you continue to encourage the Iranian people by making clear that, following the fall of the Islamic Republic and during the transitional period, the United States will support and safeguard Iran’s territorial integrity and national unity. Such assurance would play a vital role in countering the regime’s fear-based narratives and empowering Iranians to pursue change with confidence and resolve.
Your leadership has already altered the course of history. Continued and decisive support for the Iranian people in their struggle against religious fundamentalism has the potential to reshape the political landscape of the Middle East in a lasting and positive way. We commend you for your steadfast support of Iranians seeking freedom, sovereignty, and a peaceful future among the free nations of the world.
Respectfully,
Dr. Iman Foroutan
Chairman of the Board. The New Iran
