Menendez: Tillerson ‘Subverted’ U.S. Policy in Iraq as Head of Exxon

‘I’ve learned that he’s not an advocate of sanctions which we probably knew even though he’s tried to walk that back’

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.”
