Rubio: No need for major military operations against Iran; economic pressure achieves the goal

US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said in Paris that Washington currently sees no need to carry out major military operations against Iran, arguing that economic pressure achieves the same goal, and warning that the US military is ready to respond if Tehran crosses red lines. His remarks came a day after President Donald Trump spoke of a "push" toward ending the conflict with the Islamic Republic, while Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi stressed that the solution is neither through military means nor through tightening sanctions.
