Rubio: Iran Deal Could Take "A Few Days" After US Strikes Southern Iran
⏱️ RUBIO — He's negotiating while bombs are still warm. 📌 LOOK CLOSER: "A few days" after a kinetic strike reframes the MOU track: Washington is signaling war and diplomacy run simultaneously, not sequentially. Tehran cannot publicly negotiate under active bombardment without hardliners seizing control. Rubio's timeline keeps markets from full panic but gives Iran no face-saving entry point. Watch whether Oman or Qatar go silent — that's the real signal the track is dead.
