Rubio Statement on Erbil Attack

Feb 16, 2021 | Press Releases

Miami, FL — Senate Select Committee on Intelligence Vice Chairman Marco Rubio (R-FL) released the following statement on the Erbil attack:
 
“The attack on Erbil was an unprovoked and hostile act against the people of Iraq and against the United States,” Rubio said. “Iran cannot hide behind its proxy forces in Iraq, and the world must make clear that the cost of harming U.S. personnel and our allies is high: international condemnation and swift retribution. Iran’s sponsorship of these groups also serves as a reminder that Khamenei cannot be trusted to honor international agreements and why Iran must never get close to a nuclear weapon.”
