Former Governor of Arkansas
Mike Huckabee






• Huckabee is in full support of having diplomatic talks with Iran. According to him the administration should not take the military option from Iran off the table, nor would Huckabee himself do it. The military option would become viable only if the US had exhausted other options.

• According to Mike Huckabee the US is proceeding down a one way track where Iran is concerned and leading to 'armed confrontation.'

• Huckabee strongly believes that the negotiations held recently with Iran in regard to Iraq were narrowly focused and did not explore the complete range of possibilities.

• Mike Huckabee reiterates that many Iranians are well disposed towards the US. He provides evidence of this by commenting "we should remember that on 9/11, while there was dancing in the street in other parts of the Muslim world, there were candlelight vigils and mourning in Tehran."

• Huckabee was quoted saying that Iran helped the US during the first invasion of Afghanistan, especially with the Northern Alliance.

• Huckabee whole heartedly welcomes the new sanctions against Iran since no direct business is done between Iran and the US, hence there will be no impact unless it is honored by other countries.

• In Huckabee's opinion, if China and Russia do not support the United Nations sanctions it would remain weak thus creating greater hope from Iran's biggest trading partner, the European Union. He feels that Nicholas Sarkozy, the President of France, would become a willing ally in this attempt.
