Rubio signals sustained U.S. military posture against Iranian interference in Strait of Hormuz

Senator Marco Rubio stated that the U.S. will maintain strikes against Iranian assets as long as Tehran attempts to control the Strait of Hormuz, dismissing current diplomatic efforts as insincere. The statement signals a hardening of U.S. policy toward Iranian maritime aggression, though it remains unclear if this reflects an official shift in executive branch strategy or individual legislative rhetoric.
