US Secretary of State Marco Rubio stated that Iran will benefit if it complies with Washington's conditions regarding the Strait of Hormuz and its nuclear program, APA reports.
"Iran will certainly benefit if it truly agrees to this and these negotiations," he said in an interview with the Indian television channel India Today . As the head of the American state policy department explained, the United States is seeking from the Iranian authorities "an opening of the strait, serious negotiations, and an outcome in which they will never have nuclear weapons and the issues related to enrichment and highly enriched uranium will be resolved." "And in exchange for this, they will receive benefits," Rubio added. He did not specify what steps on the part of the United States he had in mind.
"The strait must be opened immediately and completely," he said, explaining the US demands. "That's the first step." "The second step is for Iran to engage in serious negotiations on three issues: its commitment to never have nuclear weapons, limits on its enrichment capacity, and what to do with highly enriched uranium," Rubio continued. "There's no reason to have uranium enriched to 60 percent unless you want to enrich it to 90 percent and use it for military purposes."
