Rubio, Kirk Comment On Iran’s Charges Against Washington Post Reporter

Apr 20, 2015 | Press Releases

Washington, D.C. –  U.S. Senators Marco Rubio (R-FL) and Mark Kirk (R-IL) issued the following statement today regarding charges by Iran against The Washington Post reporter, Jason Rezaian:

“It appears that Mr. Rezaian is being persecuted because of his profession as a reporter and his American citizenship. Freedom of press is a right that should be guaranteed to all individuals regardless of their nationality. We urge the Iranian government to immediately and unconditionally release Mr. Rezaian.  

“This case is just the latest example of the true nature of the Iranian regime. The Obama Administration should demand Mr. Rezaian’s immediate release along with all other Americans wrongfully imprisoned in Iran prior to concluding a nuclear deal with this brutal regime.”

In March 2015, Rubio and Kirk led a group of 19 senators in urging the Obama Administration to demand the unconditional release of Rezaian and other American citizens unjustly imprisoned in Iran.
