Rubio backs Trump’s Middle East strikes, says Iranian regime must change
Rubio said the strikes have severely degraded Iran’s defenses and pushed Tehran toward talks on denuclearization and the Strait of Hormuz.

- Secretary of State Marco Rubio praised the strategy, claiming recent military actions have "severely degraded" Iran's "conventional shield" of drones and missiles during Operation Epic Fury, which began February 28.

- Israel has joined the United States in pursuing the agreement, which Trump asserts includes "immediate and total opening" of the Hormuz Strait and an end to Iran's nuclear threat.
- Washington continues to demand that Tehran renounce its aim to "export the revolution," emphasizing that raising the cost for regional influence remains central to the administration's long-term strategy.
