'That's irrelevant': Marco Rubio snaps at CBS host over Iran attack details
- Secretary of State Marco Rubio stated on Sunday, June 22, 2025, on CBS's Face the Nation that the U.S. bombed three nuclear sites in Iran to prevent weaponization.
- The strikes followed Iran’s violations of nonproliferation agreements and uranium enrichment beyond civilian levels, which the IAEA censured earlier this month.
- Rubio asserted that Iran possesses all the necessary components for a nuclear weapon, including the means to deliver it, the ability to enrich uranium, and a stockpile of weapons-grade uranium.
- He rejected inquiries about whether Iran’s supreme leader had authorized weaponization, arguing that such details were irrelevant since Iran already possesses all the necessary components to develop nuclear weapons.
- Rubio emphasized that what happens next depends on Iran’s choice and urged the country to pursue a peaceful path amid ongoing tensions.
