Marco Rubio commenced his Middle East tour as Secretary of State focusing on strong U.S. support for Israel while issuing stern warnings to Iran, characterized as the principal source of regional instability. In discussions with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, the need to address Iran's influence was highlighted. The trip also includes visits to Saudi Arabia and the UAE, where his reception is uncertain due to unrest following President Trump’s controversial Gaza proposal, aggravating regional tensions over Palestinian rights and Israeli statehood conversations.
Rubio stated, "Iran is the single greatest source of instability in the region, behind every terrorist group and every act of violence."
