US Secretary of State Marco Rubio says Washington still has confidence in the security of all of its bases, after five men were arrested near a British airbase on suspicion of preparing terrorist acts, Reuters reports.
Rubio, asked about the US decision to remove its B-1 bombers from the British base, says that the Department of War constantly relocates assets where they need to be and that he would not directly tie last week’s incident to the move.
He adds that British authorities have been very cooperative on the case.
