U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio has said that Iran’s demands in negotiations are “very strange, ridiculous and completely unrealistic” in some cases.
Reuters reported early Monday, November 9, that Rubio made the remarks during a press conference as he was departing Florida for Paris.
According to the report, Rubio said that negotiations with Iran had made little progress and that there was no immediate prospect of achieving a breakthrough.
Rubio added that U.S. President Donald Trump wants a diplomatic solution, but that Iran’s demands are “unacceptable.”
This comes as Trump recently said that if negotiations make progress and lead to a solid agreement, it is highly unlikely that he would order new attacks against Iran.
