United States Secretary of State Marco Rubio said that Iran fired on commercial ships this morning. The United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations reported that a cargo vessel was struck by a projectile earlier today. He added that US President Donald Trump has a number of options available, including resuming the military operation, and that the US will continue to defend the Strait of Hormuz and keep it open. However, he stressed that, if the two sides want to reach a peace agreement, it will require "hard work over a period of time."
Rubio told reporters at the United Nations General Assembly that the international system is failing because it has "grown beyond its intent" and is currently unable to resolve "virtually any" issue. He said it would be "great" if a functional international system existed, but noted that the US will never put international order above its own interests.
