Congressman Van Drew Issues Statement on Ceasefire Between Israel and Iran

Washington, DC -Today, Congressman Van Drew issued the following statement after President Trump announced that Israel and Iran have agreed to a full ceasefire.

"President Trump did what had to be done," said Congressman Van Drew. "Iran with a nuclear weapon would be dangerous for America, and he took decisive action to make sure that can never happen. He stood with our allies and defended the interests of the American people by standing up to a regime that has been a threat to peace for decades. Now, we are seeing the results. Iran has quickly agreed to a ceasefire. This is exactly what peace through strength means. I am proud to stand with President Trump as he restores American leadership on the global stage and makes the world a safer place."
