Sen. Ted Cruz: “A year ago, Joe Biden gave Afghanistan to the Taliban. Now he intends to give a nuclear arsenal to Iran.'
Sen. Ted Cruz blasted the prospect of a new Iran nuclear deal on Tuesday, as Iran agreed to drop some of its demands and rumors circulated of an imminent agreement.
The original Iran deal came about after years of sanctions — which then-President Barack Obama had resisted — that finally convinced Iran to come to the negotiating table. However, the U.S. dropped many of the sanctions as a precondition to talks, allowing Iran’s economy to recover and eroding the west’s leverage against the regime. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu traveled to the U.S. to warn Congress that unless the deal also punished Iran for its terror activities, it would be ineffective.
The deal was never presented to the Senate for ratification, as required by the U.S. Constitution. Obama agreed to the passage of the Iran Nuclear Agreement Review Act, which required Congress to approve the deal by a similar majority, but Democrats filibustered a resolution of disapproval in the Senate. Meanwhile, Iran sent money to terrorist proxies — and continued to work on its nuclear program.
