Marco Rubio's Three-Word Announcement After Leaving Situation Room Shocks World
“This is the weakest Iran has been in 25 years,” Rubio said. “This is the weakest Iran has ever been.”
Rubio informed host Sean Hannity that Iran had been developing missile capabilities that could eventually reach the continental United States. He likened Tehran’s ambitions to those of North Korea.
“That’s what they were aiming to do,” Rubio said. “They were aiming to become the next North Korea.”
In an interview with Al Jazeera Media Network, Rubio criticized European allies for their reaction to the conflict and suggested that the U.S. might need to reevaluate its relationship with NATO. He highlighted restrictions placed on U.S. military operations by allied nations, Breitbart News reported.
Rubio stated that some NATO members, including Spain, denied the U.S. access to airspace and bases during the operation. He questioned the continued benefit of the alliance if allies do not support the U.S. when needed.
“If that’s the arrangement, that’s a hard one to stay engaged in and say this is good for the United States,” Rubio said. “All of it’s going to have to be re-examined.”
The administration also expressed frustration with the United Kingdom’s initial refusal to permit strikes from the joint U.S.-UK base on Diego Garcia. British officials later allowed the use of airbases, which became a crucial staging point for operations.
President Donald Trump also criticized European allies for their response to the conflict and efforts to secure the Strait of Hormuz. He urged countries dependent on the waterway to assume responsibility for protecting their own energy supply.
“You’ll have to start learning how to fight for yourself,” Trump wrote on Truth Social. “The U.S.A. won’t be there to help you anymore.”
Trump also criticized France for refusing to assist U.S. operations related to Iran. He stated that the United States would remember the lack of support from allies moving forward.
