He also drew attention to the fact that official Tehran may decide to introduce a toll collection system in the Strait of Hormuz.
Despite this, the American diplomat assured that any permanent toll on this waterway would be "unacceptable."
Journalists asked Rubio to assess the likelihood of a US ground invasion of Iran.
The Secretary of State is convinced that the United States is capable of achieving all possible goals with the help of American ground forces.
But we will always be ready to provide the president with maximum freedom of choice and maximum opportunity to adapt to unforeseen circumstances, if they arise, the diplomat said.
