Rubio Starts Gulf Tour on Iran Deal

U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio has embarked on a Gulf tour that includes the United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, and Bahrain to discuss the situation with Iran and ensure full, free passage through the Strait of Hormuz, through which approximately 20% of the world's oil supplies pass. The tour is part of efforts to build trust with Gulf countries and to discuss the memorandum of understanding proposing a halt to hostilities and the opening of the strait, in exchange for Iran's commitment to freeze uranium enrichment. This comes amid ongoing negotiations with Iran to end the war within 60 days.
