Rubio says US will be 'completely aligned' with Gulf allies on Iran negotiations

US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said on Wednesday that Washington would be "completely aligned" with its Gulf partners as it pursues negotiations with Iran aimed at finding a permanent settlement to the Middle East war. "We're going to be completely aligned with our partners in the Gulf. That's why we're meeting with all of them tomorrow," Rubio said in Kuwait City. "We want them to know and we want to reiterate and begin to talk to them and engage them on conversations about every decision that is made with regard to this negotiation. We are not going to do anything that undermines the security of our longstanding allies in the region." Support stories that matter.
