Iran FM Blames US for Regional Instability, Firing Back at Rubio's Gulf Tour
🕊️ TEHRAN — Iran's FM fires back at Rubio while he's still on the tarmac. 📌 LOOK CLOSER: Tehran publicly labeling the US the source of regional instability — while Rubio courts Gulf states — is a pressure move, not rhetoric. It raises the cost for Kuwait and UAE of visibly aligning with Washington. Gulf leaders already uncertain of US delivery on the MOU now absorb this signal before any meeting concludes. Iran is making the coalition harder to hold from the outside.
