US Secretary of State Rubio said on the 8th that the current diplomatic measures to end the war with Iran have not been very effective, accusing Iran of “not only unacceptable, but also simply unrealistic under certain circumstances.” He reiterated that the US government is more inclined to resolve the US-Iran conflict diplomatically, but said he would not say that the US and Iran are on the verge of breaking through. Rubio defended the large-scale military operation against Iraq in February this year, saying it was “not necessarily popular, but necessary” to stop Iran's nuclear program. Trump said on the 8th that as long as negotiations between the US and Iran progress, it is “extremely unlikely” that the US will resume large-scale military operations against Iraq, but the US military stationed in the Middle East is “ready” and the possibility of using force again has not been ruled out.
