Message to Compatriots Abroad on Global Day of Action Gatherings, February 20, 2026

Dear compatriots abroad,

The image you displayed at the "Global Day of Action" gatherings around the world was the true image of Iran — a magnificent image of peacefulness, culture, civilization, order, and rule of law; in stark contrast to the terrorism, backwardness, violence, chaos, and extremism of the Islamic Republic.

In the days and weeks ahead, as our compatriots in Iran await global assistance, it is our duty to ensure that this help will come. Therefore, your message to the politicians and decision-makers of your host countries is very clear: those who obstruct aid to the people of Iran will not have the vote and support of the large Iranian community abroad, neither today nor in the future.

I call on all of you to continue to be worthy representatives of the Iranian nation; determined and steadfast, organized and dignified, move forward as you did on the "Global Day of Action"; keep your eyes on the main goal; refrain from behaviors unworthy of the great Iranian nation; and do not allow distractions and those who create them to divert you from the path to victory.

Long live Iran, Reza Pahlavi
