Democratic Congressman backs Tehran deal

Jerold Nadler, a Democratic congressman from New York in the House of Representatives of the United States Congress, said he supported the Iranian nuclear program deal signed by the US administration.

Nadler believes that the deal prevents Iran from having nuclear weapons, which is in the interests of the United States and Israel.

Earlier this week, US President Barack Obama wrote a letter to Congress, stating that if Iran returns to work on developing nuclear weapons, the United States will reserve freedom of action and will be ready to use all means, including military force.

Before him, many representatives of the Democrats opposed the deal, for example, New York Senator Chuck Schumer, reports Newsru.

Previously reported that a draft resolution was submitted to the House of Representatives of the US Congress rejecting an agreement with Iran on its nuclear program. The document was introduced by Republican Ed Royce, chairman of the lower house foreign affairs committee.

In accordance with the previously adopted law regulating the implementation of agreements with Iran, the agreement with the Islamic Republic will be reviewed by Congress, which by September 17 must decide on approving or disapproving the “nuclear deal”.
