Vice President Kamala Harris said in an interview published Tuesday that Iran is the U.S.’ most “obvious” adversary, but the Biden-Harris administration has arguably been easier on Tehran than others, allowing the country to rake in billions of dollars to fund terrorism.
Iran has enjoyed sanctions relief under the Biden-Harris administration, which has allowed the regime to make hundreds of billions of dollars from oil revenues, often sent to terrorist networks throughout the Middle East. Harris said during a 60 Minutes interview released Tuesday that Iran is one of the U.S.’ greatest adversaries.
“I think there’s an obvious one in mind, which is Iran,” Harris told CBS News’ Bill Whitaker, who asked who the U.S.’ “greater adversary” was. “Iran has American blood on their hands. This attack on Israel, 200 ballistic missiles, what we need to do to ensure that Iran never achieves the ability to be a nuclear power, that is one of my highest priorities.”
When asked what she would do if there were evidence that Iran was building a nuclear weapon, Harris refused to answer.
“I’m not going to talk about hypotheticals at this moment,” Harris told Whitaker.
Under the Biden-Harris administration, sanctions against Iran have been eased, allowing Iran to make hundreds of billions off of oil revenues. Iran sends substantial amounts of money to its terror proxies, including Hamas, which invaded Israel last year and killed approximately 1,200 people.
Iran is now in conflict with Israel, the latter of whom is in a multi-front conflict with other bad actors in the region, such as Hezbollah, the Houthis, Iraq and Syria-based terror networks. The ongoing conflict has shown no signal of ending as Israel continues to strike those terror networks.
The Biden-Harris administration’s ability to intervene or control the ongoing conflict in the Middle East has seemingly become severely limited. Though Biden has openly said that a ceasefire deal was close at hand, it has not happened.
