A US victory in the conflict with Iran would mean permanently depriving Tehran of the financial and technological capabilities to develop nuclear weapons, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said, APA reports.
Rubio made the remarks while answering journalists' questions following his speech at the Federalist Society in Washington.
"I think victory means ensuring that they never have a nuclear weapon. And that means they must have neither the money nor the equipment to do so," Rubio said.
The Secretary of State claimed that US economic pressure on Iran had already produced significant results.
"The economic damage we have inflicted on this regime is now so extensive that military operations are unnecessary. We have seriously weakened them," he emphasised.
