Secretary of State Marco Rubio has issued a warning that Iran’s threats to control the Strait of Hormuz “is not going to be allowed to happen,” promising a resolution in “weeks, not months.” In a clip shared on X by the Department of State, he emphasized that Iran’s threats about creating a “tolling system” to control the international waterway “will never be allowed to happen.”
Rubio made these comments during an interview on Good Morning America, where he discussed the current state of affairs with Iran. According to Rubio, the president has “a number of options available to him” to prevent Iran from seizing control of the crucial shipping lane.
