US Secretary of State Marco Rubio accused Tehran of seeking funds to support terrorism and obtain a nuclear weapon rather than improve the lives of Iranians, in a Fox News interview aired Wednesday.
“They want money for two things: terrorism and ultimately to have a nuclear weapon, and we can’t allow that to happen,” Rubio told host Brian Kilmeade.
Rubio accused Tehran of spending its money on Hezbollah, Hamas and armed groups in Iraq instead of improving conditions inside Iran.
“If they spent a fraction, just half the money on these militias, if they spent it on their own people, the Iranian people would be better off,” Rubio said.
