Graham: Hope rumors of Iran ceasefire extension off base; lists Trump's bottom line

Senator Lindsey Graham criticized rumors of extending the ceasefire for a deal with Iran, outlining President Trump's conditions including no enrichment, US control of enriched uranium, and cessation of Iran's ballistic missile program and support for proxies.

In a retweet, Senator Lindsey Graham posted:

"I hope speculation and rumors about yet another extension of the ceasefire to reach a deal with Iran are off base.

To me, President Trump’s position is clear. I fear the Iranians will play the same old game they always play, dragging things out by doing things like making menial concessions.

I believe the bottom line for President Trump is:

No enrichment
American control of the approximately 900 pounds of highly enriched uranium
The opening of the Strait of Hormuz without interference from Iran
Iran must abandon its long-range ballistic missile program and any effort to develop a nuclear weapon
And Iran must cease support for all terrorists proxies in the region

This would allow Iran to exist as a nation but not as the largest state sponsor of terrorism.

If there is no deal, it is time to finish the job."
