Iran has “lost complete control” of the Strait of Hormuz, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said Wednesday, adding that Tehran’s economy was “in total and complete freefall.”
“The Straits of Hormuz are open. There’s almost as much oil flowing out now as there was before this conflict began. So they’ve lost complete control of the Straits,” Rubio told reporters during a visit to Athens.
Speaking in a joint news conference with his Greek counterpart, George Gerapetritis, Rubio reiterated that Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon, adding that the issue was that simple.
