Cruz: We Should Arm Kurds to 'Collapse' Iran's Regime, Don't Care if Turkey Doesn't Like It

Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) stated on Fox News Channel's "The Story" on Friday that the U.S. should arm Kurdish groups in Iran as part of efforts to destabilize the Iranian government. Cruz said, "I don't care that Erdogan" in reference to Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan's opposition to such a policy. The statement reflected Cruz's position that supporting armed Kurdish groups should take priority over maintaining relations with Turkey on this issue.
