Rubio says US has not offered Iran sanctions relief just for reopening the Strait of Hormuz

US Secretary of State Marco Rubio tells lawmakers that the Trump administration has not offered Iran sanctions relief in exchange for just opening the Strait of Hormuz, and says any sanctions relief will be based on Tehran meeting conditions relating to its nuclear program.

Rubio also says there are indications that Iran’s injured Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei is increasingly engaged at some level in the negotiations.
