Cantor: ‘The Underlying Agreement Does Nothing to Reverse Iran’s Nuclear Program’

Published January 13, 2014 3:52pm ET



House majority leader Eric Cantor responds to the Iran deal:

“This expected and overdue implementation only furthers a deeply flawed agreement that legitimizes Iran’s flagrant violations of multiple U.N. Security Council resolutions calling for the full suspension of its nuclear program. Although Congress still needs to investigate key details of this implementation plan, the underlying agreement does nothing to reverse Iran’s nuclear program, allows it to continue industrial-scale enrichment of uranium and fails to address critical aspects of Iran’s weaponization research.
