#BREAKING
Brian Hook, US Special Rep on #Iran:
1)
We are focused on our maximum pressure on the regime in Iran. Tehran uses oil resources for terrorism. Any oil consignment to Syria is worth tens of millions of dollars. We have warned ship crews not to aid the IRGC export oil.
2)
Hook:
If you are the sailor of a ship carrying Iran's oil, you will come under judicial punishment.
We want a stable & peaceful Middle East. As long as Iran continues its terrorism, we will prevent its measures and oil exports.
3)
Hook:
The regime in #Iran has continuously provided 70% of Hezbollah's budget. However, Hezbollah's leader is now asking for help due to U.S. sanctions. These groups are weakening.
We are sending this message to Tehran that it is unacceptable to support terrorist groups.
4)
Hook:
Zarif says Iran seeks self-defense. How is the world's leading state sponsor of terrorism worried about itself?
The regime in Iran cannot be trusted at all.
Look at countries with peaceful nuclear energy. In contrast to them, Iran insists on having enrichment.
5)
Hook:
The fact that Iran has maintained and hidden their nuclear stockpile indicates their true intention. They are seeking nuclear weapons.
