US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said that while Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi described Iran's policy as 'eye for an eye', President Trump's policy is 'head for an eye', and warned that Iran will pay a very heavy price, according to Ynetnews.
US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said that while Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi described Iran's policy as 'eye for an eye', President Trump's policy is 'head for an eye', and warned that Iran will pay a very heavy price, according to a report from Ynetnews.
The remarks follow a similar report at 11:16 Jerusalem from N12's Asaf Rosenzweig, in which Rubio made the same 'head for an eye' statement. The new report adds the explicit context of Araghchi's earlier threat.
The statement comes amid ongoing US-Iran tensions, with the Trump administration pursuing both military pressure and diplomatic channels.
