(Bloomberg TV-U.S. State Department) Secretary of State Michael Pompeo interviewed by Kevin Cirilli - Asked about Iran, Secretary of State Michael Pompeo said Thursday: "This seems like escalation because there's been stories in the news, but this is 40 years, 40 years of malign behavior. So whether it was seizing a British tanker that was in international waters or shooting down an American UAV that was also in international airspace, or assassination campaigns in Europe or trying to kill an ambassador here in the United States, Iran has this long history of malign behavior." Foreign Minister Zarif "gets to come here...and he speaks to the media, he talks to the American public, gets to put Iranian propaganda out into the American airwaves. I'd like a chance to go [to Iran] not to do propaganda, but speak the truth to the Iranian people about what it is their leadership has done and how it has harmed Iran."
