2022 OH Senate race: on Foreign Policy
Bernie Moreno:
Always, always, put America First!
President Trump's National Security Strategy gave us a great roadmap to pursue our vital security interests: Protect the American Homeland, People, and Way of Life; Advance American Prosperity; Preserve Peace through Strength; and Enhance American
Influence. Our foreign policy must follow this roadmap and always, always, put America First! We need to spend more time and energy making America great than worrying about what other nations think of us.

Bernie Moreno:
United States must always stand unequivocally with Israel
America has no greater friend than Israel and we should always be their number one ally. In a region full of hostility toward the United States, Israel is a source of freedom and stability in the region. It is the only state in the region that shares
our democratic values. As Israel's neighbors want to wipe them off the face of the earth, the United States must always stand unequivocally with Israel.

Jane Timken:
Stand up for Israel, Iran is a threat to Israel and US
I've had several conversations with folks in the Jewish community. They're very concerned about Iran. They want to make sure that Israel is protected as our number one ally in the Middle East. We need to stand up for our ally, Israel, and,
I'm very concerned about the Biden's administration's approach to Iran. We cannot have Iran develop nuclear capabilities. It is a threat to Israel, our ally, and is a threat to the United States's security.

Jane Timken:
BDS movement antisemitic, would push back with legislation
We really need to push back on the BDS movement. That is a leftist policy that is antisemitic, and I see it on college campuses, I see it in their dialogue and rhetoric, and I will stand up and push back against that because
I think it's leading to some real disastrous effects. I think there's some things we can do in terms of college campuses, how these movements are being pushed on to college campuses, that I'd like to get some legislation passed to push back on that.

Jane Timken:
Abraham Accords have been a significant development
I absolutely applaud President Trump's approach to our foreign policy in the Middle East. I was very proud when he moved the embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, as had been promised by several presidents before. And the
Abraham Accords have been a significant development in the Middle East. Look, it's peace through strength. He has stood up for Israel, and I will always do that as the next United States senator. We need to make sure that Israel is protected.

Advocates strong and public support for Israel
Israel has a right to defend itself and America must stand resolute with Israel against these terrorist attacks. Where is Joe Biden and Democratic leadership?
I am praying for peace and will always #standwithIsrael.

I will always work to advance policies that weaken Iran
America--and Israel--cannot afford Biden being wrong again when it comes to rejoining the Iran Nuclear Agreement. An Iran armed with nuclear weapons would pose an unacceptable danger to Israel and the United States. We must continue a policy that
prevents Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons and holds them accountable for their support of terrorism. As a U.S. Senator, I will always work to advance policies that weaken Iran, not embolden them.

Morgan Harper:
Israel has right to exist; so does Palestine
[On Mideast policy]: "Israel has a right to exist," she told JI through a spokesperson. "So does Palestine. I firmly believe in the peace process. Like many, I have been increasingly concerned about the actions taken by former Prime Minister [Benjamin]
Netanyahu and his government that undermined the peace process, and I am also concerned about any exacerbation of violence. I am eager to see what the new government in Israel does to rectify past wrongs and move forward toward a lasting peace."

JD Vance:
Put Americans first in response to Russia-Ukraine war
[Democratic opponent Rep. Tim] Ryan and Vance want the U.S. to have different roles in the war between Ukraine and Russia. When asked how the U.S. should respond if Russian President Putin uses nuclear weapons against Ukraine, Vance said "nobody knows"
what the best course of action would be. He went on to argue that foreign policy should put Americans first, and he believes the Biden administration hasn't done enough to deescalate the conflict.Ryan called for a "swift and significant response" if
that occurs and argued Vance is weak on Russia. The congressman also criticized his opponent for saying he doesn't "really care what happens to Ukraine."
"I've been to Parma," said Ryan, referring to the Cleveland suburb with a large Ukrainian-
American population. "I've met with the refugees. I meet with the women and the daughters and sons because the husbands are in Ukraine fighting. That's the kind of freedom we need to support, and J.D. Vance would let Putin roll right through Ukraine."
