Iranian President Hassan Rouhani and Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif are the most responsible for Iran’s economic and worldly positions, despite the west holding those two leaders apart from the regime’s support for terrorists, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said Monday.
“Here in the West, President Rouhani and Foreign Minister Zarif are often held apart from the regime’s unwise terrorist and malign behavior. They are treated somehow differently,” Pompeo said in a speech on the administration’s plan for Iran at the Heritage Foundation. “Yet Rouhani and Zarif are your elected leaders. Are they not the most responsible for your economic struggles? Are these two not responsible for wasting Iranian lives throughout the Middle East?”
