No one coming to Iran’s aid except Democrats, Chairman Risch says

Senate Foreign Relations Chairman Jim Risch said on Wednesday that major world powers such as China, Russia, North Korea, Cuba and Venezuela are not coming to Iran’s aid - and argued that “the only entity left that appears to be trying to help you, Iran, is the Democrats.”

“What’s happened over the last 47 years is the Arab countries have gotten tired of this. They’re sick and tired of this. And so where are we today? We are at the point today where you have only one bad apple left in the region, and that’s Iran,” the Republican senator said.

“Over these 47 years, what Iran has done while the Arab countries have moved away - while they have moved to wanting peace and security in the region - they have continued to murder thousands of Americans. They have killed thousands of Americans,” he added.
