US Secretary of State Marco Rubio says Washington will be “completely aligned” with its allies in the Gulf as it pursues negotiations with Iran aimed at finding a permanent settlement to the Middle East war, AFP reports.

“We’re going to be completely aligned with our partners in the Gulf. That’s why we’re meeting with all of them tomorrow,” he states, adding the US will “engage them on conversations about every decision that’s made with regards to this negotiation”.
