We hope that they’ll accept the humanitarian assistance (inaudible) that the Iranian people so desperately need, and there is no sanction in place today that prevents that from happening. To suggest that sending cash to Iran right now is going to solve this humanitarian crisis is just a failure of logic. SECRETARY POMPEO: They’ve got money there are resources there. If it was going to go to them, Guy, the money that they have already today wouldn’t be being used to transfer missiles around the world and to fund Hizballah. That cash won’t go for medicine and food and supplies. That cash will go into the pockets of the corrupt leaders. We want good things for the Iranian people, but this is no reason to try and infuse cash to the Iranian regime. We’ve now facilitated assistance from other countries as well. We wanted to bring technical assistance and all the things that America can bring to help save Iranian lives. We made very clear to them there was – there wasn’t a cost to this. You can see my statement and the State Department statements. The very first thing we did when we learned that Iran was being hit in a significant way with this virus was to reach out and offer humanitarian assistance. SECRETARY POMPEO: I can’t account for that you’d have to ask them.

He also worked for NPR station before becoming a radio host for Fox News Radio. Why do some Americans keep conflating these two issues? Guy Benson is an American news journalist currently working for Fox News, and as a columnist, commentator, and political pundit respectively. And it just – it sort of amazes me because there has been one example after another of outreach and offering of humanitarian help that would have nothing to do with these sanctions that Iran is rejecting. I think they’ve been hit very hard and are being opaque about it. We’re seeing some commentary from I would say some of the usual suspects that it’s cruel of the United States to keep sanctions on Iran while they’re going through a very difficult time with coronavirus.
