An invitation to all Iranians to join the National Cooperation Campaign to Save Iran

Prince Reza Pahlavi's Message

Full text of the message

My brave fellow Iranians,

The Islamic Republic is weaker and more fragmented than ever. It is not the same regime that ruled Iran a year ago. Its missing leader and senior officials are afraid of the Iranian people. They know that a nationwide uprising can bring their rule to an end.

This criminal regime and its Revolutionary Guards (IRGC) have dragged our country into war and put Iran’s future at risk. The IRGC controls much of the country, steals its wealth, and is responsible for much of the economic crisis and insecurity we face today.

They have left our people without enough food, without security, and without hope for the future. They are willing to destroy Iran to stay in power.

Our country has already suffered too much. We cannot allow more destruction. We must stand together and do everything we can to save Iran.

We have a clear plan to end the Islamic Republic and manage the country after it falls. Our plan will maintain security and stability, protect people’s basic freedoms, and make sure their essential needs are met.

To those serving in the military, police, and security forces: stand with the people, not the regime. Join the nation when the time comes to free Iran. Those who do so will be guaranteed safety and protection from reprisals. But those who continue to support the regime and commit crimes against our people will face justice under the law.

This time, I call not only on military and government personnel, but on Iranians from every walk of life who have had enough of this regime and seek a free and prosperous future for our country. Join us. Contact my team directly through t.me/BarkhiziranBot on Telegram and sign up today for the National Cooperation Campaign to Save Iran.

Together, we can bring the Islamic Republic to an end and build a new future of freedom, peace, and prosperity for Iran.

Long live Iran!

Reza Pahlavi

How to Join

Through the Telegram bot, in four steps

Tina Ghazimorad, Prince Reza Pahlavi's director of communications and media, explains how to join the campaign and what to watch for

1

Secure your Telegram first

Check your active Telegram sessions and make sure no unknown device is connected to your account. Turn on two-step verification and set your privacy settings so that strangers cannot see your details.

Do these three things before opening the bot

2

Search for the bot yourself

The valid link is on Prince Reza Pahlavi's official accounts and his media communications; do not click links on unofficial pages or in messages from strangers. Then check that the handle reads exactly @BarkhiziranBot.

Warning: any other bot, code or form is fake

3

Verify the bot

Once you are in the chat, tap the bot's name at the top and make sure the handle reads exactly @BarkhiziranBot, not one letter more or less. Send no sensitive or identifying information until you are sure the channel is genuine.

Your message goes directly to Prince Reza Pahlavi's team

4

Register, then delete the chat

After registering, delete the chat but do not block the bot, so it can message you later. Do not re-enter this or any other bot; wait patiently for the team's message.

Your message reached Prince Reza Pahlavi's team

The QR code shown during the live broadcasts of Iran International and Iran National Revolution TV is another path to the same bot. Scan it only from the live satellite broadcast of those two channels; never from recorded videos, reposted images or anywhere else.

Secure your Telegram

  1. Two-Step Verification

    Settings → Privacy and Security → Two-Step Verification

    On, with a strong password

    With this password an SMS login code alone lets nobody in. Write a hint that does not give it away.

  2. Active Sessions

    Settings → Devices

    Terminate all other sessions

    Cut off any device you do not recognise now, and set "Terminate old sessions" to one week.

  3. Phone Number

    Settings → Privacy and Security → Phone Number

    Who can see: Nobody · Who can find me by number: My Contacts

    Strangers, even in groups, never see your number and cannot find you by it.

  4. Last Seen & Online

    Settings → Privacy and Security → Last Seen & Online

    Nobody

    Your online pattern gives away your daily life; hide it.

  5. Forwarded Messages

    Settings → Privacy and Security → Forwarded Messages

    Nobody

    When someone forwards your message, your name does not travel with it and nothing links back to your account.

  6. Calls

    Settings → Privacy and Security → Calls

    My Contacts · Use Peer-to-Peer: Nobody

    A peer-to-peer call hands your IP address to the other side; with this setting the call goes through Telegram's servers.

  7. Groups & Channels

    Settings → Privacy and Security → Groups & Channels

    My Contacts

    No stranger can add you to a group without asking; unknown groups are where profiling and lures happen.

  8. Passcode Lock

    Settings → Privacy and Security → Passcode Lock

    On, next to your phone's own lock

    If the phone leaves your hands, Telegram does not open without the code. And always the official app, always updated.

Get the latest Telegram from its official addresses

Do not use unofficial Telegram apps; they can put your safety at risk.

  • unofficialموبوگرام
  • unofficialبست‌گرام
  • unofficialRitMGram
  • unofficialPlus Messenger
  • unofficialNicegram
  • unofficialNekogram
  • unofficialGraph Messenger
  • unofficialSwiftgram

And every build like them: FilterGram, VidoGram, RedGram, PersianGram, PentaGram, ElGram, BGram, exteraGram, AyuGram, Unigram and any other "anti-filter Telegram".

Their makers are unknown and their updates are not in your hands; Telegram itself declared Hotgram and Talagram unsafe in December 2018.

Important Security Points

Only @BarkhiziranBot

Any other bot, code or form, especially one published on unofficial pages, is fake.

Verify it on the bot's profile page

Send no sensitive or identifying information until you are sure the channel is genuine.

Two-step verification and active sessions

Turn on Telegram's two-step verification and remove unknown devices from your active sessions.

Delete the chat, do not block the bot

After registering, delete the chat but keep the bot unblocked so it can message you later.

Use a reliable VPN

For extra security, connect through a reliable VPN.

Be aware of your surroundings

Act in a safe and private environment.

Only the official Telegram app

Do not use unofficial builds or the "Iranian Telegrams" such as Hotgram, Talagram and Mobogram for this contact; Telegram itself has declared them unsafe.

Fake ads above the chat

An ad above the bot chat? It is fake; just tap ✕.

Telegram shows an ad bar above every bot chat and it always carries two markers: the two letters "Ad" and "what's this?" beside them. That is Telegram's normal behaviour. These ads are fake, even when they carry Prince Reza Pahlavi's name, and as long as you do not touch them they cannot harm you.

  1. 1The moment you see it, tap ✕ to close it.
  2. 2Do not tap any link or channel inside it.

The bot's messages are the ones inside the chat.

Why Telegram?

Six reasons the campaign uses a Telegram bot

Already in everyone's hands

Telegram is the most used messenger in Iran and is already on most phones. On 10 February 2026 its founder Pavel Durov wrote that despite the ban most Iranians still use Telegram and prefer it to surveilled apps. Installing an unknown app is itself a risk.

A handle you verify yourself

The bot has a unique handle that cannot be forged and can be checked on its profile page. The valid link lives only on Prince Reza Pahlavi's official accounts and his media communications; you search for the handle yourself and never click a link on an unofficial page.

Official app, open source

Telegram's official apps are open source and their builds can be verified. Unofficial builds, above all the "Iranian Telegrams", have repeatedly been declared unsafe.

Your number stays with Telegram

Joining the bot takes your number nowhere it has not already been: it is the same account you have used on Telegram for years. The bot sees only what you type, and your phone number stays with Telegram unless you send it yourself.

The controls are yours

Two-step verification, the list of active sessions, deleting a chat on both sides and a username instead of a number are all Telegram's own tools.

It said no to the Islamic Republic

Telegram refused the Islamic Republic's request for access to citizens' data and refused to move its servers into Iran; the result was a full block by court order in April 2018.

With the official Telegram app and a direct chat with our correct bot, the path is safe; what can put it at risk is using unofficial apps and third-party clients.

Where your data goes

Three places, three plain answers

On Telegram

Your account is what it already was; the bot never sees your number and sees only what you type yourself.

In the campaign's system

What you register moves into the campaign's own separate system, designed by an expert team and kept to the highest security standards.

On your phone

Delete the chat after registering so nothing stays on the phone; do not block the bot, so the team can message you later.
