MIKE POMPEO: Trump's renewed maximum pressure on Iran will reshape the Middle East
Fox News
Whether within Iran, across the Middle East, or elsewhere, the return of President Trump’s maximum pressure campaign is tremendous news for lovers of liberty – but his team should not stop there.
Mike Pompeo served in the Trump administration as the sixth director of the Central Intelligence Agency and the 70th U.S. secretary of state. He previously represented Kansas’ 4th Congressional District.
As the past four years have shown, enriching and enabling the malign Iranian regime only leads to war and terror. As Trump demonstrated, the best way to avoid these outcomes is through massive and effective sanctions on Iranian oil exports, which allow the regime to prop up its dysfunctional economy, fund terrorist proxies like Hamas and Hezbollah, and inflict pain and suffering on the Iranian people.
