US ‌envoy Witkoff says he has met with Iran’s Prince Pahlavi

Feb 22, 2026, 07:12 GMT+0

US ‌envoy Steve Witkoff said he has met with Iran’s exiled Prince Reza Pahlavi under direction of US President Donald Trump.

“I've met him at the direction of the president,” he told Fox News. “I think he's strong for his country, cares about his country. But this is going to be about President Trump's policies, not Mr. Pahlavi's policies. I think the president is interested in hearing everyone's views.”

Witkoff said Trump was curious why Iran had not yielded under US military pressure in the region.

The US ‌envoy also said Trump had instructed him and Jared Kushner that Iran must halt enrichment and send out nuclear material, arguing Tehran’s program went beyond civilian needs.
