TRT’s Misguided Mockery

Khoshnood, Ardavan M. LU orcid (2024) In Cyrus the Great Institute, CGI Perspectives
Abstract
Turkey’s state broadcaster TRT has produced a clip mocking Iran’s Crown Prince Reza Pahlavi and distorting historical facts about his father, the late Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi. The Shah’s legacy includes significant economic growth, modernization, and a substantial reduction in poverty in Iran. Given Turkey’s own human rights issues under President Erdoğan, there is a clear irony in TRT’s criticism.
