U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio said in an interview with Fox News that Iran is now more willing to negotiate on issues including its nuclear program and the Strait of Hormuz after Washington’s military strikes. Rubio said the U.S. attacks destroyed Iran’s navy, air force, missile defense systems, launchers, and weapons production facilities, and had "severely degraded" the country’s defensive capabilities. At the same time, he said Iran still has missiles and drones and remains capable of causing damage. Rubio also argued that Iran no longer has the conventional shield it had intended to rely on, and said that shift is the only reason Tehran is now willing — and in some cases appears eager — to reach agreements on denuclearization and Strait-related matters. The remarks were cited by Odaily, which attributed the report to Jin10.
Odaily reported that U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio said in an interview with Fox News that Iran has become more willing to negotiate on issues including its nuclear program and the Strait of Hormuz following Washington’s military strikes.
Rubio said the U.S. attacks destroyed Iran’s navy, air force, missile defense systems, launchers, and weapons production facilities, and "severely degraded" its defensive capacity.
He added that Iran still has missiles and drones and can still cause damage. At the same time, Rubio said Iran no longer has what he described as the conventional shield it had intended to hide behind.
"That changes the entire landscape," Rubio said. He added that this is the only reason Iran is now willing — and in some cases appears eager — to make a deal on denuclearization and on Strait-related issues, saying the U.S. is now dealing with Iran from a position of strength rather than weakness.
The report was cited by Jin10, according to Odaily.
