The Biden administration granted U.S.-sanctioned Iranian president a visa to speak at the U.N. on Tuesday. A new bill co-sponsored by Sens. Rubio and Cruz seeks to halt future visits.
FOX News' Jacqui Heinrich provides details on President Biden's statement urging Americans not to travel to Iran following the detainees' return.
Daftari, who has written extensively about Iran, noted that by"Allowing him to come onto U.S. soil legitimizes a man who has a long history of wholesale executions, funding global terrorism, and to this moment, continues his wrath on the peaceful protesters in Iran. Why would the U.S.
In a press released issued to promote the bill to ban Raisi, Rubio stated,"Raisi actively supports terrorism and wants to kill American citizens. Although I’m not surprised he wants to reunite with the many other murderers and thugs who claim membership at the United Nations, Raisi should not be allowed into the United States. Our bill would accomplish what the Biden Administration appears unwilling to do: ban Raisi’s entrance into the country and protect our national security.
When asked if the U.N. would ban Raisi from speaking, U.N. secretary-general spokesperson Stephane Dujarric told Fox News Digital,"We do not have comments on a proposed bill in the U.S. legislature. The United States obviously has the right to control its own borders. The U.S. also has commitments in terms of the U.N. Headquarters Agreement of 1947, which sets out the U.S.’s responsibilities as host nation vis-à-vis the U.N.
Miller said,"With respect to the president of Iran being hosted at a [think tank] in New York, I won’t speak to that in particular. They’re obviously an independent organization that can make their own decisions.
