Rubio updates on Iran talks and MOU
The article discussed the New York talks between the United States and Iran regarding the Iranian nuclear issue. U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio emphasized that the negotiations have not yet achieved significant progress and have continued within the framework of previous communications, but no final settlement has been reached. He clarified that Iran has completed the previous memorandum of understanding it had signed with Washington, which was violated by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) when they targeted navigation in the Strait of Hormuz, leading to the collapse of the agreement. Rubio pointed out that the final decision in Iran does not rest solely with negotiators but is ultimately up to the leadership, with the primary U.S. stance focused on preventing Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons. He also reaffirmed the commitment to safeguarding navigation in the Strait of Hormuz and keeping it open, emphasizing that the region remains sensitive and critical to global energy flows. Rubio noted that Washington does not expect Iran's policies to change significantly before the U.S. midterm elections but remains committed to applying pressure to prevent Tehran from obtaining nuclear weapons, while keeping the door open for negotiations.
