Exclusive: Marco Rubio tells Al Jazeera US war objectives in Iran will be achieved 'within weeks' - Al Jazeera English



In an exclusive interview with Al Jazeera, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio outlines Washington’s position on Iran, saying US objectives will be achieved “within weeks, not months.”

Rubio says messages and direct talks are taking place between parties inside Iran and the United States, mainly through intermediaries, while warning that the Strait of Hormuz “will be opened one way or another” after the military operation ends. He also says Iran must take concrete steps to abandon any ambition to acquire nuclear weapons. Watch the full interview on Al Jazeera. - 03/30/2026.
