NEW DELHI: US secretary of state Marco Rubio, in the presence of minister of external affairs S Jaishankar, launched a scathing attack on Iran, calling it "the world's leading sponsor of terrorism".
"Look what they are doing now. They are holding hostage civilian vessels, including ships that have now been stuck in the Persian Gulf," said Rubio, adding that the Donald Trump administration would never allow Iran to have nuclear weapons."This is an Iran that has organised the assassinations and attempted assassinations of people all over the world, including civilians and dissidents and people they don't agree with. There is no nation on earth that sponsors more terrorism than Iran. And they have spent millions and millions of dollars sponsoring terrorism and targeting individuals all over the world," he added.
