Graham Supports IRGC Terrorist Designation

WASHINGTON – U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham (R-South Carolina) today made this statement on the decision by Secretary of State Mike Pompeo to designate Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps a terrorist organization.

“I completely support Secretary Pompeo and the Trump Administration’s decision to label Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) a terrorist organization.  The IRGC has been wreaking havoc throughout the Middle East and is a direct arm of the Ayatollah’s hateful policies.

“Secretary Pompeo and President Trump have rightfully put enormous pressure on Iran.  This announcement is another example of their commitment to reigning in the destructive and murderous Iranian regime.”
