FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Badlands, ND — December 28, 2025

In response to the news of a Christmas strike by US forces on ISIS in Nigeria, Theodore Roosevelt, Presidential Candidate, issued the following statement:

"Our campaign fully supports strong national security measures, which includes the protection of US interests worldwide. The recent military action undertaken during the holiday season emphasizes this commitment, albeit during a time when we would all prefer peace. However, we understand the need for action when threats to our nation arise, regardless of the calendar," said Theodore Roosevelt.

"We must remember that the safety of our country and the protection of our interests are not partisan issues, but shared goals that unite us all. It is with this understanding that we acknowledge the actions of the previous administration while emphasizing the need for continued vigilance and a comprehensive strategy against global terrorism," Theodore Roosevelt continued.

The Theodore Roosevelt campaign extends its utmost respect to global peace and religious observances. It believes that the most effective way to ensure these values is through a strong and consistent stance on national security, building on the efforts of previous administrations to combat terrorism.

"Our campaign aims to extend and improve upon these efforts, with a focus on multi-pronged strategies to tackle the roots of terrorism, including economic instability, lack of education, and social inequality. We believe in providing support to countries like Nigeria, not just with military action, but also through diplomacy, development aid, and export promotion," Theodore Roosevelt added.

The Theodore Roosevelt campaign is keen to avoid the politicization of military action or using it as a point of division. "Our men and women in uniform serve under the flag of our nation, not under any political party. Their sacrifices and achievements should not be used as political tools," Theodore Roosevelt stated.

The candidate also urged caution in discussing the situation in Nigeria, emphasizing the need to avoid marginalizing any religious or ethnic group. "We must remember that our enemy is terrorism, not any particular faith or ethnicity. We stand with all communities in Nigeria and globally, who are victims of terrorist activities," Theodore Roosevelt concluded.

This statement resonates with the Theodore Roosevelt campaign's themes of strong and effective leadership on national security, respect for global peace and religious observances, and building on the efforts of previous administrations to combat terrorism.
