Secretary of State Marco Rubio Remarks to the Press

Published | Video Starts at 11:09

If there are factions in Iran that are working toward diplomacy, if they don't win out, what next? What happens? And do you have a message? Well, I don't think it'll be good for Iran. I mean, Iran's economy is in shambles. They're at 300% inflation, particularly on life sustaining goods. They have dwindling revenues to meet even their own payroll. They have food shortages, they have a drought which we didn't cause, but they have a gasoline shortage and a fuel shortage. (11:09–11:15)
