Another Dodge: Clinton Claims It’s Not Useful To Comment On Iran Talks
Today, Former Secretary Of State Hillary Clinton Dodged Questions On The Iran Nuclear Talks, Saying It Would Not Be “Useful” For Her To “Publicly Comment.” QUESTION: “Secretary Clinton, do you agree with John Kerry’s assessment that Iran disclosing its past military experimentation with nuclear technology is less important than curbing future use? And would you agree with an agreement that did not make Iran come clean on its past activity?” HILLARY CLINTON: “You know, Amy, I don’t think it’s useful for me to publicly comment right now on what the negotiations are attempting to resolve. I think I’ve been very clear that we must never permit Iran to have a nuclear weapon. I am very proud of the role I played in building the coalition and the sanctions that brought Iran to the negotiating table. But there are a number of issues that are critically important. There needs to be full transparency, disclosure and verifiable inspections going forward. And certainly, any part of the Iranian nuclear or military establishment that has anything to do with the program, past, present and future needs to be subject to that.” (Hillary Clinton, Remarks, Iowa City, IA, 7/7/15)
