Pompeo Defends Killing of Top Iranian General, Says He Recommended It to Trump

The United States is hitting Iranian companies and eight senior officials with new sanctions, in response to Iranian attacks against bases housing U.S. forces in Iraq. Pressed for the rationale behind killing a top Iranian general last week, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo insisted General Qassem Soleimani was plotting attacks on U.S. facilities. Pompeo is front and center as President Donald Trump’s most influential national security adviser. VOA’s Diplomatic Correspondent Cindy Saine reports.
