Rubio Says Significant Progress Made in Iran Talks, Deal Possible Soon

U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio says significant but not final progress has been made in negotiations with Iran. He indicates the world may receive good news "in the coming hours" regarding the Strait of Hormuz and a broader process. Rubio emphasizes that any agreement will not strengthen Iran's nuclear ambitions, calling such an idea "absurd." He stresses that Iran does not own the Strait of Hormuz, which is an international shipping lane, and warns that allowing Iran to threaten commercial vessels would set a dangerous global precedent.
