‘Leverage Against the World’: Rubio Warns Iran over Strait of Hormuz
Iran's continued attacks on Gulf states, including Bahrain and Kuwait, escalate regional tensions as the U.S. weighs a broader air campaign to ensure maritime security.
- On Sunday, Secretary of State Marco Rubio urged international partners to share the logistical and financial burden of protecting the Strait of Hormuz, calling Iranian attempts to control the waterway "unlawful and unacceptable."
- Iran continued missile and drone attacks against Kuwait and Bahrain on Monday, defying a 10-day halt proposal with no immediate sign of ending the regional barrage.
- Washington requested permission from Bulgaria to station refueling aircraft to support military operations, while President Donald Trump convened a meeting in the White House Situation Room last week to discuss widening the campaign.
- Options discussed reportedly included seizing Kharg Island, a key hub for Iranian oil exports, as Washington aims to counter Tehran's attempts to use the strategic passage as global leverage.
- Despite the military buildup, Rubio stated the United States remains open to a deal if Tehran proves willing to honor terms, emphasizing that protecting global shipping cannot be solely the responsibility of the United States.
