We need a foreign policy rooted in peace through strength, where the United States stands up to our enemies and strongly defends our national security interests and supports our allies. After eight years of weakness and appeasement under President Obama, it is critically important that we restore American leadership in the world, and stand shoulder to shoulder with our allies, including Israel, which deserves our resolute support in the most dangerous parts of the world. I was tremendously proud and commend President Trump for his historic announcement recognizing Jerusalem as the capital of Israel and beginning the process to move our embassy to Jerusalem. It is also in the national security interest of the United States to ensure under no circumstances does the Iranian regime ever build and obtain nuclear weapons, and to demonstrate for support the Iranian people who oppose their repressive, terrorist supporting government in Tehran.
