Bloomberg reported that the US Secretary of State, Marco Rubio, criticizes the positions of the Islamic Republic in the negotiations to end the war, saying that Tehran's demands so far have been unacceptable and in some cases "shocking and ridiculous".
Rubio also defended the approach of Donald Trump, the president of the United States, towards the Islamic Republic, saying that Trump was not elected to ignore the threat of Iran and leave it to the next president to deal with.
He emphasized that ignoring this threat and leaving it to the next administration is the easiest way, but Trump faced this threat to ensure the safety of American citizens, not to ensure his personal interests.
