Carly Fiorina on Foreign Policy

No deal with Russia nor Iran on nuclear cooperation

[Under the new UN sanctions], Iran will be allowed to continue arming itself--these sanctions include a loophole that will let Russia move forward with plans to sell Iran one of the world's most sophisticated air defense systems, the S-300. Russia will also be allowed to continue building and delivering fuel to an Iranian nuclear reactor, even as the Obama administration moves toward a deal with Russia on nuclear cooperation that is now pending in Congress. And these sanctions do not target Iran's imports of refined petroleum products or its access to international banking systems and capital markets, and it does not include a ban on dealings with Iran's national air and shipping lines--the real pressure points on the Iranian regime.

Barbara Boxer and this Congress have so far refused to stand up to this administration and get serious about the threat from Iran."
