US Secretary of State: If Iran implements a toll system in the Strait of Hormuz, a US-Iran diplomatic agreement will be difficult to reach

Odaily Planet Daily News: US Secretary of State Marco Rubio told reporters on Thursday that if Tehran implements a toll system in the Strait of Hormuz, a diplomatic agreement between the US and Iran will be difficult to reach. Rubio stated: "No one in the world supports this toll system. It must never happen. It is unacceptable. If they continue to pursue this approach, it will make reaching a diplomatic agreement impossible. Therefore, if they attempt to do this, it would pose a threat to the world and is completely illegal."

Rubio also told reporters that some progress has been made in negotiations with Tehran to end the US-Israel war against Iran, but Washington is facing "a system that is somewhat fragmented in itself." "There are some positive signs," Rubio said. "I don't want to be overly optimistic... So, let's see what happens in the coming days." (Jinshi)
