U.S. has not decided on new Iran strikes, Rubio says

U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio said Saturday that President Donald Trump has not decided on fresh strikes against Iran, citing stalled peace talks and a preference for diplomacy amid post-midterm tensions. Rubio stated that military objectives could be achieved if sought, but Trump has made no decision on further action, with reports suggesting potential attacks after Tuesday's midterm elections. He slammed Iran for targeting commercial vessels while expressing openness to a diplomatic solution, though he declined to commit to a timeline for negotiations. Iran's Supreme Leader Khamenei warned the U.S. and Israel against new attacks, ordering immediate and unrestricted responses to any threats. EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas urged de-escalation, saying escalation benefits no one, as regional tensions remain high.
