Controversă după ce fiului şahului a primit, în Germania, un premiu destinat poporului iranian

Reza Pahlavi, son of the deposed Shah of Iran, received a controversial freedom award in Frankfurt, Germany, sparking criticism regarding his legitimacy. Supporters rallied for him, waving imperial Iranian and Israeli flags. Pahlavi stated he would hold the award temporarily until it could be given to the rightful representatives of the Iranian people. However, many in the Iranian opposition and among Germans expressed strong objections, questioning his role and legitimacy as a representative. The event faced boycotts from local political groups who argued he does not represent the Iranian populace.
