️🇺🇸🇮🇸 US Secretary of State, Marco Rubio, on Iceland's strategic role in conflict prevention:

"We want to continue to build on this as a way to prevent conflict, not as a way to encourage or provoke it. History teaches us that deterrence is the best prevention of violence and the best way to prevent war.

"You played such a strategic role in the past and you continue to play that role now."
