US Senator Rubio: Iran seeks deal but sets 'absurd' conditions

US Senator Marco Rubio said Iran is interested in reaching an agreement but continues to set 'absurd' conditions and is not showing seriousness at this time.

The senator added that Iran continues to launch drones in attempts to target commercial vessels, and that the US will keep countering these attacks, according to Al-Sharq.

Rubio also noted that the volume of oil passing through the Strait of Hormuz on some nights reaches between 80 and 85 percent of pre-war levels.
