Sen. Marco Rubio demanded the Biden administration crack down on Iran and its efforts to create nuclear weapons, following reports that it played a role in the terrorist organization Hamas's weekend attack on Israel.
"The Iranian regime is intent on fomenting terror across the region, as evidenced by its proxies, Hamas and Hezbollah’s, brutal attacks this weekend on our ally, Israel," Rubio wrote in the letter."Now more than ever, you must ensure that you hold the regime accountable for its failure to comply with obligations under the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty."
Iran has long sought to obtain nuclear weapons, despite the passage of a 1970 international Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty that intended to stop the spread of nuclear weapons and weapons technology to nonnuclear regions. But according to a congressional report in July, which cited U.S. intelligence assessments, the Iranian government has the"capacity to produce nuclear weapons at some point" but"has not mastered all of the necessary technologies for building such weapons.
