America’s top diplomat declared Tuesday that the Strait of Hormuz must remain accessible following U.S. military strikes against Iran the previous day.
Secretary of State Marco Rubio made the emphatic statement while speaking with reporters aboard his aircraft in Jaipur, India.
“The straits have to be open, they’re going to be open one way or the other, so they need to be open,” Rubio declared.
The Secretary of State also indicated that finalizing the language for an agreement with Iran could require “take a few days” to complete.
