this is what our allies are saying: If the U.S. were to walk away from this deal, international unity would disintegrate, the hardliners in Iran would be strengthened, and we would lose the most effective path to stop Iran from developing a nuclear weapon. That is a direct quote from Philip Hammond, the UK's foreign secretary. He speaks for all of our partners in this--100 nations who support this deal--100 nations who support this deal. Why would we want to stand with the hardliners in Iran? I know my colleagues wrote to them. And they are partners with them, make no mistake--the hardliners here and the hardliners in Iran. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator's time has expired.
