Pahlavi has lived in exile for nearly five decades following the overthrow of his father, Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, during the Iranian Revolution. The revolution saw millions take to the streets, forcing the shah from power.
In recent years, Pahlavi has sought to reassert his role as a political figure and position himself in discussions about Iran's future.
