Rubio Warns ASEAN on Iran's Strait Threat | Wilmington News
Description
Secretary of State Marco Rubio is sounding the alarm to Asian allies as Iran’s potential control of the Strait of Hormuz threatens global trade — warning that if Tehran starts charging tolls, it could set a dangerous precedent. With ASEAN leaders already rattled by Middle East turmoil, Rubio reaffirmed U.S. support, echoing concerns from Russia and Australia over soaring energy prices and regional instability. As the Quad alliance — Australia, India, Japan — vows to bolster maritime security against China’s rising assertiveness in the South and East China Seas, Rubio also signaled possible U.S.-Russia cooperation on Ukraine, while engaging separately with India and China to navigate escalating regional tensions.
