Nikki Haley praises Trump on Iran, Israel at Republican convention
Former UN ambassador Nikki Haley said that Democratic nominee Joe Biden would be good for Iran and the Islamic State.
The Donald Trump administration’s former UN ambassador, Nikki Haley, praised the president on his Israel and Iran policies to kick off the Republican National Convention on Monday.
Haley said that a victory by Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden would benefit Iran and the Islamic State (IS).
“Joe Biden is good for Iran and ISIS,” she said, using an alternative name for IS.
The convention began on Monday and will finish Thursday with Trump’s speech to accept the Republican Party’s nomination for president. The Democratic National Convention was the week before. Republicans elected to not formulate a new platform at this year’s convention, citing the small number of people attending because of the COVID-19 pandemic. Trump’s agenda for a second term does not mention the Middle East specifically.
