Rubio: Iran begs for a deal but won’t commit amid rising US–Iran tensions

U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio says Iran privately seeks a deal with the United States but is not ready to accept one, arguing Tehran reneges on agreements and will pay a heavy price as a tit-for-tat cycle of strikes widens in the Middle East. He accuses Iran of funding regional proxies like Hezbollah, Hamas, and the Houthis, reaffirming Washington’s goal of a denuclearised Iran. The piece notes ongoing U.S. strikes against Iran and Iranian retaliation, questions over a recent MoU, and analyst commentary on potential negotiations with the Houthis amid the broader conflict.

The launch was supervised by leader Kim Jong Un and his family, and was described as a "miraculous success" by official media KCNA. Kim stated that the Hwasong-18 would rapidly advance North Korea's nuclear response posture and support an aggressive military strategy. Talks on denuclearisation have been stalled since 2019.
