US National Security Adviser Argues That Investing in Iran Is '"Cutting a Cheque" to Terrorists
NCRI Staff
NCRI - Donald Trump’s national security adviser H.R. McMaster said that investing in Iran is like “cutting a cheque” to the country’s Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC), which is designated as a terrorist organisation by the US Treasury.
Speaking at the Munich Security Conference on Saturday, McMaster said: “When you’re investing in Iran, you’re investing in the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps [IRGC], a military entity that’s intertwined in the Iranian economy and has drawn US sanctions. You might as well cut the IRGC a cheque.”
In this speech, it is believed that McMaster was calling out US allies Germany, Japan and South Korea for their investments in Iran.
These investments are not being used to help the ordinary people of Iran but are instead finding their way into the hands of corrupt Regime members and the money is being used to fund the suppression of the Iranian people and terrorism across the Middle East.
The conference, attended by military and political leaders from all over the world, was dedicated to resolving long-term security concerns in the Middle East, many of which are attributed to Iran.
The Trump administration is currently looking at several ways to tackle the threats posed by the Iranian Regime, like correcting the flaws of the 2015 Iran nuclear pact, including the removal of sunset clauses, which allows restrictions to expire, and increased inspections at non-declared and military sites in Iran.
Russia’s former ambassador to the US, Sergey Kislyak, urged the US not to amend the deal, but Saudi Foreign Minister Adel al-Jubeir voiced support for the changes.
Also at the conference, Jubeir voiced support for a draft United Nations resolution, proposed by the United Kingdom, the United States and France, which would condemn Iran for supplying the Houthi terrorist cell in Yemen with ballistic weapons in spite of two current UN resolutions.
At the Munich Security Conference, Jubeir said: "In order to ensure that Iran comports itself with international law, we must have firmer positions with regards to ballistic missiles and with regards to Iran’s support for terrorism. Iran must be held accountable."
Iran had denied the allegations of arming the Houthis, but there is much evidence to the contrary. Saudi Arabia, who leads the Arab Coalition to restore the legitimate Yemeni government, say that the Houthis do not have the technology to make ballistic missiles, while the US and independent UN experts have provided evidence that the ballistic missiles fired at Saudi Arabia by the Houthis shown signs of Iranian manufacture.
