Washington, D.C. – U.S. Senator John Curtis (R-UT), member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, released the following statement on Israel’s airstrikes on Iran:
“Last night, the world witnessed the extraordinary resolve of a nation determined to survive—and to prevent Iran from ever obtaining a nuclear weapon. Israel exercised its sovereign right to defend itself against an existential threat. Just yesterday, the International Atomic Energy Agency reported that Iran is not complying with its nuclear nonproliferation obligations.
“The United States must stand firmly with Israel and remain committed to long-term peace and stability in the region. I pray for the safety of our American servicemembers stationed in the Middle East, and for the Israeli and Iranian people who suffer because of the Ayatollah’s regime.”
