Washington, D.C. - Senator Tom Cotton (R-Arkansas) today released the following statement on Secretary Pompeo's new Iran strategy:

"Today, Secretary Pompeo laid out a wise strategy to eliminate Iran's nuclear-weapons program once and for all. Every single one of his demands is vital to securing peace in the Middle East and beyond, and the only reason Iran would have for rejecting them would be a malicious determination to continue its campaign of terror. The world will be safer when Iran is forced to choose between its nuclear ambitions and its economy, and I urge all countries around the world to heed Secretary Pompeo's call for cooperation and confront the ayatollahs with that choice."
