Statement of Senator Mark Warner Following the Israeli Prime Minister's Speech to Congress
Mar 03 2015
“In this critical period of negotiations between the U.S., our international partners and Iran, it is important to hear the views of our strongest allies like Israel. As a strong and longtime supporter of Israel, I value Prime Minister Netanyahu’s clear presentation of the threat that Iran continues to present to Israel, the region, and the world. We now should allow the Secretary of State an opportunity to conclude negotiations between the P5+1 nations and Iran, and then assess if it adequately prevents Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon. I don't believe this is the time to condemn a deal before we even know if there will be a deal."
