According to Principal Deputy Spokesperson Tommy Pigott, the two officials have discussed the evolving security situation in the strategic waterway.
Rubio stresses that all commercial vessels must immediately comply with orders issued by US forces as they work to maintain peace and stability in the region.
He also underscores that violations of what he describes as US enforcement measures, including the illicit transport of Iranian oil, will not be tolerated.
