THE SITUATION IN IRAN
(Mr. WILSON of South Carolina asked and was given permission to
address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. WILSON of South Carolina. Mr. Speaker, FOX News and Iran
International report that the Special Envoy for Iran for Biden, Robert
Malley, has met with the Iranian Ambassador to the United States three
times recently. During this period, the Iranian regime was murdering
its own people in the streets. The Biden administration must explain to
the American people what was discussed.
General Jack Keane has correctly warned that Iran can develop a
nuclear capability in just 4 more months. Biden refuses to close the
door and stop the talks over reentering the Iran nuclear deal. An
absurd Iran nuclear agreement will give the regime billions of dollars,
threatening Israel and underwriting drones to Putin against Ukraine.
I have appreciated the bipartisan opposition to the deal by Senator
Joe Lieberman and Chairman Eliot Engel.
The House Republican majority is committed to providing oversight of
the weak foreign policy of Biden.
In conclusion, God bless our troops, who successfully protected
America for 20 years as the global war on terrorism continues, moving
from the Afghanistan safe haven to America.
