US-Iran Tensions: Marco Rubio Discusses Trump's Military Strike on Iranian Nuclear Sites

Published | Video Starts at 01:22

Mr. Secretary, thank you for being here. Are we now at war with Iran? No, we're not. This is not a war against Iran. This is, this is very simple. You know, 67 days ago, the President of the United States sent the Iranians a letter and it said, you're not going to have nuclear weapons, you're not going to have a militarized nuclear program. Let's negotiate. I want to do this diplomatically, I want to do this peacefully. They tried to play him along the way. They've played every American president for the last 35 years. (01:22–01:31)
