US Secretary of State Marco Rubio braced for some tough questions from European leaders at the G7 summit, all while criticizing nations unwilling to fully back the US-Israeli war on Iran. This comes as top diplomats showed significant divisions with the United States over the ongoing Iran war, despite agreeing on a call for an immediate halt to attacks against civilians and urging the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz to international shipping.
Rubio had already expressed the US administration’s increasing frustration with European allies before even landing in France for the summit. Speaking on Thursday, March 26, at Joint Base Andrews, he directly referenced European leaders who claimed the war on Iran wasn’t “Europe’s war.”
