๏ธ๐บ๐ธ๐ฎ๐ท๐ถ๐ฆ American Secretary of State, Marco Rubio, says that Washington remains open to an agreement with Iran, and reveals that Qatar and other countries are actively mediating between the two sides:
"The US is always ready. There is a real deal to be made, we are open, and there are countries out there that are involved. The Qataris were in Washington yesterday. The Prime Minister met with the President.
We have had ongoing discussions with them, and they and other countries continue to try to act as mediators, trying to bounce ideas back and forth. We don't discourage them from doing it.
If there is a deal to be made, the president will be the first to be in favor of it. This is not going to be a stupid deal. It's not going to be a bad deal. Otherwise, they will simply continue to impoverish."
