The Biden administration has granted Iran’s foreign minister a U.S. visa so that he can attend upcoming United Nations proceedings in New York City, generating outrage in the wake of Tehran’s weekend strike on Israel.
Lawmakers are already calling on the Biden administration to revoke Iranian foreign minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian’s entry visa into America, which will enable him to attend U.N. meetings later this week, the Washington Free Beacon has learned. While the State Department would not confirm whether it had granted the Iranian diplomat an entry visa, regional outlets are reporting that a U.S. entry visa has already been issued.
Sen. James Lankford (R., Okla.), in a letter sent Monday to the State Department and obtained by the Free Beacon, demanded “immediate action to revoke the visa of Iranian foreign minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian,” appearing to confirm the regional reports.
Sharing a copy of his letter to Secretary of State Antony Blinken, Lankford announced, “After Iran attacked an ally of the US it would be absurd for the State Department to allow Iranian Foreign Minister a visa to travel in the US. I’m calling on Secretary Blinken to immediately revoke his visa ahead of his planned travel the UN on April 18, 2024.”

Lankford said, “Earlier today, I sent a letter to the State Department calling on them to revoke a US visa for Iran’s foreign minister.”
“There’s no reason to have the Iranian Foreign Minister on American soil—to allow them to have a platform in America while they are holding Americans hostage and attacking our ally is a terrible idea.”
