US Secretary of State Marco Rubio has said that further US military action against Iran is unnecessary because the economic pain the Washington is inflicting on a "weakened" Tehran "is so great".
“And right now, frankly, the economic pain that we are inflicting on that regime is so great that there’s no need for military action because we’ve weakened them so much,” Rubio said in his address to the Federalist Society National Lawyers Convention in Washington.
“But I think victory is ensuring that they never have a nuclear weapon,” he added.
At the same time, Rubio acknowledge the economic pain Americans have experienced as a result of the war, which has driven up fuel costs and affected nearly every sector of the global economy.
