A Republican U.S. senator supported Donald Trump’s approach as president of the United States toward the Islamic Republic and said that the leaders of the Islamic Republic now have a choice between abandoning the nuclear program and persistent economic and military pressure.

D.uew McCormick, a senator from Pennsylvania and chair of the Subcommittee on Near East, South Asia, Central Asia, and Counterterrorism in the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, wrote on X: “The Iranian regime has its hands stained with American blood, and there is no doubt that it was moving toward a nuclear bomb.”

He added that Mr. Trump “made a difficult and courageous decision to address this threat.”

McCormick wrote: “The leaders of Iran are now facing a choice: either set aside their nuclear ambitions or face ongoing economic and military pressures.”
