Congressman David Scott Statement On the Events Unfolding in the Middle East
Washington,
June 13, 2025
Washington D.C. – Today, Congressman David Scott released the following statement on the events unfolding in the Middle East: “For almost two decades, we have uncovered disturbing evidence of Iran hiding military nuclear weapons under its nuclear energy program. I indicated as much in my 2012 NATO Parliamentary Assembly Report, that a nuclear-capable Iran was preparing to use this kind of attack—resulting in severe consequences for Israel’s security and global stability. “The fact remains that Israel has every right to defend its people and sovereignty against this existential threat. I am calling on President Trump to place America’s full support behind Israel during these trying times. The United States is not against the people of Iran—it is against the mullahs’ group of extremists who are disregarding the safety and well-being of Iranians.” # # # |
