Tenney: Withdrawal from Iran Nuclear Deal will put safety and security of American homeland first
Tuesday afternoon, Congresswoman Claudia Tenney (NY-22) commended President Trump for his decision to withdraw from the Iran Nuclear Deal. The process of re-imposing sanctions will begin immediately, targeting critical sectors of Iran’s economy, such as its energy, petrochemical and financial sectors.
She said the president will now work to assemble a broad coalition of nations to deny Iran all paths to a nuclear weapon and to counter the totality of the regime’s malign activities.
“The flawed deal with Iran has done nothing but enrich the Iranian regime and enable its aggressive behavior domestically, in the Middle East, and throughout the globe,” Tenney said. “The Iran Deal gave the Iranian regime too much in exchange for too little. Iran has shown no signs that it is interested in pursuing peace or even curbing its malevolent behaviors. I thank President Trump for his decision to prioritize the safety and security of our citizens and the American homeland on this important national security issue.”
