副总统J·D·万斯在瑞士就美伊关键核谈判发表讲话，强调要确保伊朗无法开发核武器，并维持国际航运畅通。特朗普政府旨在达成一项持久和平协议，近期已有1600万桶石油通过霍尔木兹海峡。万斯还谈及民主党内部社会主义候选人的崛起。
副总统J·D·万斯于周六回击了批评声音，有意见认为总统唐纳德·特朗普与伊朗总统马苏德·佩泽希齐扬签署的协议将在不要求这个支持恐怖主义的国家在行为上做出有意义改变的情况下，为德黑兰带来经济利益。
在《福克斯与朋友们》早间采访中，万斯驳斥了参议院军事委员会主席、密西西比州共和党议员罗杰·威克以及其他共和党人的担忧。这些共和党人表示，伊朗最终可能会利用这份谅解备忘录中的经济激励措施重建其军事和核项目。该谅解备忘录旨在作为一项长期和平协议的框架。
“我欣赏罗杰，他是我的朋友，但我认为他在这个问题上错了，”万斯说。“这份谅解备忘录的意思是，如果伊朗长期表现良好，它们可以从这项协议中获得部分好处。”
两党批评人士都指责本周早些时候签署的这份协议未能实现美国的关键目标，包括拆除伊朗的核武器能力和浓缩铀库存、限制其弹道导弹项目，以及要求德黑兰终止对哈马斯、真主党和胡塞武装等地区代理组织的支持。

参议员称：特朗普的伊朗协议“比奥巴马的协议付出更多，收获更少”
威克声称，谅解备忘录中规定的60天停火协议“以完全不符合总统目标的方式”削弱了美国在“史诗之怒行动”中取得的胜利。
“具体而言，这笔用于伊朗重建和经济发展的3000亿美元基金——尽管并非由美国纳税人出资——将使得伊朗在奥巴马2015年协议下获得的回报相形见绌，”威克在一份声明中说。
威克认为，在真主党持续袭击以色列北部边境并获得德黑兰支持的背景下，解除对伊朗的制裁同时要求以色列停止对真主党的军事行动是错误的。
万斯称伊朗核计划已遭摧毁，特朗普宣布以伊停火
“伊朗政权并未放弃其最终目标——‘美国去死，以色列去死’，”威克说。“该政权将把收到的每一分钱都用于推进这一目标。”
但万斯表示，批评人士错误地认为无论伊朗行为如何，它都将获得经济利益。万斯称，只有在伊朗证明持续遵守协议并放弃推进其核项目的努力后，才会考虑解除制裁和提供地区经济援助。
“美国掌握所有主动权，”万斯说。“霍尔木兹海峡现已恢复通航，伊朗军队现已被击溃，伊朗当然已经承诺销毁其丰度较高的核材料库存，但我们仍对伊朗施加了大量经济压力，如果他们按我们的要求行事，我们愿意解除这些压力。”
万斯表示，该协议已经带来了切实成果，他援引了霍尔木兹海峡重新对商业航运开放后，周五有1600万桶石油通过该海峡的数据。他表示，本届政府的重点是确保伊朗永远无法恢复其核项目。
“我们将处理这批浓缩铀库存，”万斯说。“我们将努力重塑当前局势，这样伊朗不仅现在没有了被摧毁的核项目，而且我们可以通过联合核查和监督，有信心地说，他们永远无法重建该项目。”

万斯还表示，他相信伊朗和以色列之间的停火将持续足够长时间，以便谈判能够继续进行。万斯称，美国官员正在筹备由伊朗、卡塔尔和巴基斯坦代表参与的会谈，可能在数日内启动。
“现在我们面临一个岔路口，”万斯说。“无论结果如何美国都是赢家，但我认为最终走向很大程度上取决于伊朗。”

Vance says ‘United States wins either way’ as he defends Trump’s Iran deal against GOP skeptics

Senate Armed Services Committee Chairman Roger Wicker warned the $300B fund would dwarf Obama’s 2015 deal

Vice President JD Vance discusses critical U.S.-Iran nuclear talks in Switzerland, emphasizing efforts to ensure Iran cannot develop a nuclear weapon and to maintain open international shipping. Trump’s administration aims for a lasting peace deal, with 16 million barrels of oil recently moved through the Strait of Hormuz. Vance also touches on the rise of socialist candidates in the Democratic party.
Vice President JD Vance pushed back Saturday on criticism that the deal signed between President Donald Trump and Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian would hand Tehran economic benefits without requiring meaningful changes in the terror-sponsoring nation’s behavior.
In a morning interview on “Fox & Friends,” Vance brushed aside concerns raised by Senate Armed Services Committee Chairman Roger Wicker, R-Miss., and other Republicans who say Iran could eventually use the memorandum of understanding’s economic incentives to rebuild its military and nuclear programs. The MOU is meant to serve as a framework for a long-term peace agreement.
“I like Roger, he’s a friend of mine, but I think that he’s wrong on this,” Vance said. “What the MOU says is that if the Iranians behave over a long period of time, they could get some of the benefits of this bargain.”
Critics on both sides of the aisle have charged that the agreement signed earlier this week misses key objectives for the United States, including the dismantling of Iran’s nuclear weapons capabilities and enriched uranium stockpiles, limits on its ballistic missile program and a requirement that Tehran end its support for regional proxy groups such as Hamas, Hezbollah and the Houthis.

TRUMP’S IRAN DEAL ‘GIVING A LOT MORE TO GET A LOT LESS’ THAN OBAMA’S, SENATOR SAYS
Wicker claimed that the 60-day ceasefire agreement set forth in the MOU undermines the United States’ victories in Operation Epic Fury “in ways that are completely out of step with the president’s goals.”
“Specifically, the $300 billion fund for the reconstruction and economic development of Iran – though not funded by U.S. taxpayers – would make Iran’s payoff under President Obama’s 2015 deal look like a pittance by comparison,” Wicker said in a statement.
Wicker argued that easing sanctions on Iran while requiring Israel to cease military action against Hezbollah is misguided, given the group’s continued attacks on Israel’s northern border and its backing from Tehran.

“The Iranian regime has not renounced its ultimate goal — ‘Death to America, Death to Israel,’” Wicker said. “The regime will invest every penny it receives to further that aim.”
But Vance said critics have incorrectly assumed Iran would receive economic benefits regardless of its conduct. Sanctions relief and regional economic aid would only be considered after Iran demonstrates sustained compliance with the agreement and abandons efforts to advance its nuclear program, Vance said.

“The United States has all the cards,” Vance said. “The Strait of Hormuz is now open, the Iranian military is now destroyed, the Iranians have committed to, of course, destroying that stockpile of the rich material, but we have a lot of economic pressure applied to the Iranians that we would be willing to relieve if they do what we need them to do.”
Vance said the agreement is already delivering tangible results, citing the movement of 16 million barrels of oil through the Strait of Hormuz on Friday after the waterway reopened to commercial traffic. He said the administration is focused on ensuring Iran is permanently blocked from restoring its nuclear program.
“We’re going to go after that enriched stockpile of uranium,” Vance said. “We’re going to try to reset the situation that we have, so that the Iranians don’t just have a destroyed nuclear program now, but so that we can say with some confidence, through a combination of inspections and verification, that they’re never going to be able to rebuild that program.”

Vance also expressed confidence that a ceasefire between Iran and Israel would hold long enough for negotiations to continue. U.S. officials are preparing for talks involving Iranian, Qatari and Pakistani representatives, which could begin within days, according to Vance.
“There’s a fork in the road here,” Vance said. “The United States wins either way, but I think that what ultimately happens from here is very much up to the Iranians.”
