Political Quotes

“Madam Speaker, as co-chair of the European Union Caucus, I appreciate the EU has imposed sanctions on Iran for the first time in 3 years. Following the numerous plots against Iranian opposition leaders in Europe, the EU added two Iranians and a unit of the Iranian intelligence services to its terror list. Iran has used its diplomatic facilities to plot attacks against its critics for decades. France concluded that Iran was behind a planned bombing attack on the Iranian opposition rally group in Paris last year. Germany arrested and expelled a high-ranking diplomat suspected of transporting explosives over the summer. The list of plots is endless, threatening European families. The new sanctions are a good start, but more can and must be done. The EU should work hand-in-hand with America to hold Iran accountable for its promotion of terrorism throughout the world. In conclusion, God bless our troops, and we will never forget September the 11th in the global war on terrorism. ____________________”
