Marco Rubio, Secretary of State Washington, D.C. Colin L. Powell Treaty Room SECRETARY RUBIO: Thank you for coming. QUESTION: Mr. Secretary, do you expect Iran to come to the table? SECRETARY RUBIO: Hope we have more news later today on that. QUESTION: Mr. Secretary, can you tell me what do you think about Cuba’s president telling Newsweek that they’ll strike back against the U.S. if the U.S. launches operations there? SECRETARY RUBIO: Okay, sure, yeah. I don’t think much about what he has to say. QUESTION: So, Mr. Secretary, a message to other nations like New Zealand impacted by this war in Iran? SECRETARY RUBIO: Yeah. The whole world’s been impacted unfortunately because Iran is violating every law known by striking commercial vessels in the Straits of Hormuz, and it’s a big problem for the world. I mean, this is a regime that doesn’t believe in laws, rules, or anything like that. It’s a state sponsor of terrorism, so it’s not surprising that they’re now conducting terrorist activity against commercial vessels. So all right, thank you.
