US Secretary of State Marco Rubio stressed on Wednesday the clear rejection of a single country controlling any important strategic maritime corridor, highlighting the utmost importance of having multiple and diverse paths and sources for global energy supplies. Rubio explained
in his remarks that the waterway in the Strait of Hormuz is operating normally, pointing out that current oil flows completely match the levels known before its recent closure. He added that Tehran is barred from possessing any nuclear program,
noting that President Donald Trump is working to undermine Tehran's industrial and military capabilities. Rubio concluded by emphasizing that Iran is suffering from failures and a collapsing economy amid the burden of imposed sanctions.
