WASHINGTON – Today, Republican National Committee (RNC) Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel released the following statement on Joe Biden's trip to the Middle East:
“Heading to the Middle East to beg Saudi Arabia for oil, bend over backwards to reinstate the disastrous Iran Nuclear Deal, and weaken our relationship with Israel demonstrates just how reckless Biden’s foreign policy agenda is. With the Biden administration failing to unleash American energy as families struggle to fill up their tanks – Biden is proving once again that he puts Americans last.”
Background:
- As former Obama Defense Secretary Robert Gates has said Biden has "been wrong on nearly every major foreign policy and national security issue over the past four decades."
- Biden’s botched Afghanistan withdrawal was conducted anything but “responsibly, deliberately, and safely.”
- Biden has spent his presidency tripping over himself to get back into the disastrous nuclear deal, providing Iran with concession after concession.
- The Biden administration has consistently taken steps to undermine America’s relationship with Israel.
- Instead of encouraging American oil production, Biden has looked everywhere but the U.S. for a solution to high gas prices.
- Biden is traveling to Saudi Arabia to beg them to pump more oil.
