US Secretary of State warns Iran over Strait control
U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio emphasized that Iran's control over the Strait of Hormuz represents a serious precedent that could lead to widespread consequences beyond the Middle East, potentially causing other countries to be responsible for imposing transit fees and sabotage if payments are not made. He affirmed that Iran has no legal right to control navigation through the strait and that the United States is prepared to confront this issue in defense of freedom of navigation. While the U.S. is open to diplomatic dialogue, Rubio pointed out that Tehran is not taking negotiations seriously, and that Washington will take necessary measures to protect its interests and those of its allies if Iran continues its actions. Additionally, Rubio announced that the United States will invest $2.5 billion in Southeast Asia to strengthen its relations with ASEAN countries.
