Rubio: US does not plan Iran strike

U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced that the United States is not currently planning to carry out military strikes against Iran, focusing instead on coercive measures such as a naval blockade and recently announced new sanctions. He clarified that the U.S. administration is emphasizing diplomatic and economic escalation, while continuing to monitor the situation, and did not rule out the possibility of strikes if Iran were to strike first. Officials also pointed out that Iran's bargaining power has diminished following the removal of mines from the Strait of Hormuz and the increase in oil tanker movements in recent periods.
