U.S. Republican Senator Rick Scott, in an interview with Maryam Hosseini, a journalist with Iran International, said that Democrats waste time with their approach and, in his view, the United States should support its military forces with whatever resources they need.

He added that Donald Trump, the U.S. president, has said he will not allow Iran to obtain nuclear weapons. Scott also spoke about the dispatch of ground forces and said no option should be ruled out in advance, because, according to him, all options must be on the table.
