Al Jazeera · Qatar · Rubio wraps Gulf tour warning Iran transit tolls would spread like a contagion
Al Jazeera reports Rubio's framing of the US-Iran MoU as a GCC security guarantee, quoting his warning that Iranian-linked transit-toll extraction would spread 'like a contagion' to every shipping lane if normalised; notes Gulf foreign ministers gave polite but non-committal responses and did not endorse the agreement publicly.
“Rubio warned Gulf ministers that normalising transit tolls on Hormuz shipping would spread like a contagion across global lanes.”
