Menendez: Tillerson ‘Subverted’ U.S. Policy in Iraq as Head of Exxon
RUSH EXCERPT:
MENENDEZ: “Well, I’ve learned that he’s not an advocate of sanctions which we probably knew even though he’s tried to walk that back. I get concerned that at a big entity like Exxon and the state Department is also a big entity that he supposedly didn’t know that he was paying millions of dollars to lobbyists to lobby against sanctions on Russia, Iran, and other entities, and I get concerned that at the end of Ed in ways that were beyond kpoon’s Briz interests, but subvertd U.S. Policy in Iraq. And with state-sponsored of terrorism. So I’m not feeling comfortable that he has die cot miezed his role as a business executive and in fact what he would do going forward as the senior — the key advisor to the president-elect on foreign policy matters.”
