Rubio says US will find 'another way' if Iran talks fail
Rubio said diplomacy will get every chance before Washington considers other options, as negotiators weigh a 60-day window for a final deal.
- On Monday, Secretary of State Marco Rubio said in New Delhi that the United States will secure a "good agreement" with Iran or "deal with the country another way," prioritizing diplomacy before exploring "alternatives."
- Oil prices fell 6% to two-week lows Monday as optimism grew for a peace deal, following a conflict that began February 28, 2026, with a tenuous ceasefire since early April driving a global energy crisis.
- A senior administration official outlined a 60-day negotiating framework, noting Iran agreed "in principle" to open the Strait of Hormuz in exchange for the U.S. lifting its naval blockade and disposing of highly enriched uranium.
- President Donald Trump claimed Saturday that Washington and Tehran had "largely negotiated" a peace deal, yet he cautioned Sunday that the U.S. blockade would "remain in full force and effect until an agreement is reached, certified, and signed."
- Iranian sources via the Tasnim news agency dispute the progress, claiming the U.S. is obstructing the deal by failing to address Tehran's demands regarding sanctions relief and the release of frozen funds.
