Bijan Djir-Sarai, a senior member of Germany's Free Democratic Party (FDP), said on Saturday that exiled Prince Reza Pahlavi had brought together large numbers of Iranians seeking political change, praising his role in the movement against the Islamic Republic.
"There is no other person who unites so many freedom-loving Iranians and brings them together in a celebration of democracy," Djir-Sarai said at the Friedrich Naumann Foundation's Freedom Prize ceremony in Frankfurt.
The Iranian-born politician said a future democratic Iran should be a home for all Iranians, regardless of their political beliefs.
"Freedom also means respecting those who hold different political opinions and views," he said.
