A quarter of a million demonstrated against the Iranian regime in Munich

As many as 250,000 people took part in a demonstration against the Iranian government in Munich, Germany, on Saturday, police said. Reza Pahlavi, the son of the deposed Shah, told the crowd he was ready to lead a movement for regime change.

"I am determined to lead the transition," he said in a speech.

"So that one day we will be able to decide the fate of our country through a democratic, transparent process right up to the ballot box."

The demonstration in the Theresienwiese area was held at the same time as world leaders gathered for a security conference nearby. The aim was to condemn the Iranian regime and its deadly violence against the population.

Similar protests against the Iranian government are also planned to be held in Toronto, Canada, and Los Angeles, the United States, on Saturday.
