Sen. Lindsey Graham has made a rare break with President Donald Trump on his policy in Iran.
In an interview with Fox News, Tuesday, Graham quoted Trump saying that the Israel-Iran ceasefire will allow the region to live “in peace and harmony.”
“There can be no peace between Iran and Israel until Iran decides to change it policy which is the regime policy of destroying the state of Israel and killing all the Jews,” Graham warned. “Until that changes, nothing really changes. the program has been decimated but that people who are in charge will come right back at Israel. So, I’m looking at regime change in this sense.”
Earlier Tuesday, Trump walked back his own suggestions of a regime change.
“I don’t want it. I’d like to see everything calm down as quickly as possible,” Trump told reporters aboard Air Force One on his way to the NATO summit. “Regime change takes chaos, and ideally, we don’t want to see so much chaos, so we’ll see how it does.”
