President Trump, Iran is a deal waiting to be made, one that could transform the Middle East for generations and give the United States a legacy far greater than another agreement with Tehran's ruling clerics. Imagine an Iran reconciled with its history, its people free to determine their future, and Reza Shah, the son of the late Shah, returning to the country from which his family was exiled. Imagine a historic partnership between the United States, Israel and a free Iran, founded upon security, economic prosperity, religious liberty and the dignity of every human being. Imagine an Abraham Trade Route, connecting the Indian Ocean to the Mediterranean through a network of ports, railways and commercial corridors, reducing dependence on the Strait of Hormuz and bringing the economies of the Middle East together. Imagine the children of Cyrus and the children of Israel renewing a friendship that began more than 2,500 years ago. There is an extraordinary opportunity here: a regional order in which Iran's wealth serves its people, commerce replaces confrontation, and Muslims, Jews, Christians, Zoroastrians, Baha'is and those of no faith enjoy equal protection under the law. Reza Shah belongs at the centre of any serious discussion about Iran's political transition. For those Iranians who seek the restoration of the monarchy, he represents the continuity of a national inheritance interrupted in 1979. His role, and Iran's future constitutional settlement, must ultimately derive their legitimacy from the free consent of the Iranian people. Mr President, the opportunity extends far beyond Iran's borders. A peaceful, democratic Iran could change the security and economic calculations of an entire region. You have spoken often of making deals that others considered impossible. Here is a proposition worthy of that ambition. A free Iran. A lasting peace with Israel. A new American partnership. A trading corridor connecting nations whose futures have too long been held hostage to conflict. And at the heart of it, the Iranian people's right to recover their country and decide who shall lead it. That is a legacy worth pursuing.
