Republican Senator Lindsey Graham, a dominant figure in US politics for over two decades, died on Saturday evening, according to a statement from his office. His family requested privacy following his death. Graham, first elected to the Senate in 2002, became one of the most influential Republican voices on foreign policy, defense, and national security. Known for his hawkish stance, he was a staunch supporter of Israel and a vocal advocate of US military intervention abroad.
Throughout his career, Graham’s positions on Gaza, Iran, and the International Criminal Court drew international criticism. He supported Israel’s military actions in Gaza, opposed limiting US aid to Israel, and made controversial remarks about Palestinians that were condemned by rights groups. He also backed strong military measures against Iran and urged the White House to assert control over the Strait of Hormuz. His confrontational approach often sparked diplomatic tensions, including with European and Gulf states.
Days before his death, Graham visited Kyiv to meet President Volodymyr Zelensky, discussing legislation to increase pressure on Russia. He remained one of Washington’s most vocal supporters of military aid to Ukraine.
