Vice President Mike Pence is working to quickly fulfill an October pledge to bypass the United Nations and more effectively direct U.S. aid to help Christians, Yazidis, and other religious minorities in Iraq who are victims of genocide perpetuated by the Islamic State.
In an effort to swiftly implement the policy, Pence on Tuesday convened a White House meeting with top U.S. officials, including U.N. ambassador Nikki Haley, USAID director Mark Green, Deputy Secretary of State John Sullivan, and Office of Management and Budget Director Mick Mulvaney.
Pence tweeted about the "important" meeting afterward, promising once again that "help is on the way" to these Iraqi communities trying to rebuild.
