外交政策ではアラブの春によるリビア内戦のアメリカの介入に強く反対し、2011年1月26日から反政府軍とシリア政府軍との内戦状態が続くシリア騒乱への軍事介入や、反政府軍への武器支援にもシリアで反政府側として活動しているアルカイダ系のイスラム武装組織を支援する事になると言う理由で反対した。その為、反政府軍への武器支援を決めたオバマ大統領を非難し、同時に、シリアへの軍事介入や反政府軍への武器支援を推進している共和党上院議員ジョン・マケインを批判していた。
また、共和党はイスラエル支持の立場を取っており、核問題を抱えるイランではイランの核保有を防ぐ為のイラン封じ込めで、上院で賛成多数で決議されたが、彼1人だけはイランとの戦争に繋がる宣戦布告だとして反対した。また、かねてからアメリカが行っているイスラエルへの多額の財政支援撤廃を主張した。
Ted Cruz - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Cruz has repeatedly claimed that the 2015 international nuclear agreement with Iran "will make the Obama administration the world's leading financier of radical Islamic terrorism."In response, Obama called Cruz's statements an example of "outrageous attacks" from Republican critics that crossed the line of responsible discourse: "We've had a sitting senator, who also happens to be running for president, suggest that I'm the leading state sponsor of terrorism. Maybe this is just an effort to push Mr. Trump out of the headlines, but it's not the kind of leadership that is needed for America right now." Former Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney also criticized Cruz for his remarks, writing that although he, too, was opposed to the Iran agreement, Cruz's statement connecting Obama to terrorism was "way over the line" and "hurts the cause."
Cruz has frequently used harsh rhetoric against fellow Republicans politicians, and his relationships with various Republican members of Congress have been strained.
Among Cruz's few close allies in the Senate is Mike Lee of Utah. Cruz has expressed pride in his reputation for having few allies, saying in June 2015 that he has been vilified for fighting "the Washington cartel."
Cruz is "strongly anti-abortion" and "would allow the procedure only when a pregnancy endangers the mother's life.
Cruz opposes both same-sex marriage and civil unions. He believes that marriage should be legally defined as only "between one man and one woman," but believes that the legality of same-sex marriage should be left to each state to decide.
Cruz is a critic of the rapprochement between Cuba and the United States, saying on Fox News in December 2014 that the thaw in relations was a "manifestation of the failures of the Obama-Clinton-Kerry foreign policy" that "will be remembered as a tragic mistake."
In 2013, Cruz stated that America had no "dog in the fight" during the Syrian Civil War and stated that America's armed forces should not serve as "al-Qaeda's air force".
