Sen. Cruz: Obama Administration’s Iran Deal is Only Getting Worse

Releases statement regarding Iran negotiations

WASHINGTON, D.C. - U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, today released the following statement regarding the Obama Administration's negotiations with Iran.

"The longer the Obama Administration stays at the negotiating table with Iran, the more concessions they make," said Sen. Cruz. "We have recently learned Tehran is insisting on sanctions relief before IAEA inspectors are given full access to inspect potential military elements of the nuclear program; that Tehran will continue enrichment activities at military facilities; and that Tehran plans to retain its entire nuclear stockpile rather than relinquish any of it to outside countries. And now the commander of the Basij militia of Iran's Revolutionary Guards has reportedly said that ‘erasing Israel off the map' is ‘nonnegotiable.' Enough is enough. The Obama Administration's bad deal is only getting worse with time. Iran's nuclear build-up profoundly endangers the security of America and our allies."
