Reza Pahlavi coordinates with US officials to establish a technocratic transitional leadership for Iran, aiming to end prolonged US involvement, briefing Congress and naming transition team members.

- With a high-profile schedule, Pahlavi asserts he is ready to lead a Transitional System at CPAC later this month, citing a March 14 statement of his preparedness.
