Kucinich To Use Tuesday Hearing To Question UN Ambassador Bolton About US Troops Already Operating In Iran

Government Reform Subcommittee On National Security, Emerging Threats and International Relations Hearing With Ambassador Bolton Set For Tuesday, May 2nd


Washington, May 1 -

Congressman Dennis J. Kucinich (D-OH), Ranking Member of the House Government Reform Subcommittee on National Security, Emerging Threats and International Relations, will use a Subcommittee hearing on Tuesday to question the United States Ambassador to the United Nations, John Bolton, about US troops already operating in Iran. The hearing is set for Tuesday, May 2nd, in 2154 Rayburn House Office Building.

Recently, Seymour Hersh reported in The New Yorker magazine that US troops are already operating in Iran. Air Force Col. Sam Gardiner (Ret.) has made similar statements on CNN.

Kucinich will use Tuesday’s hearing, officially about the United Nation’s Oil-for-Food program, to question Ambassador Bolton about the presence of US troops in Iran, the ramifications in the region and the effects on diplomatic negotiations.
