U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio has called a U.S.-proposed resolution demanding Iran stop attacks and laying mines in the Strait of Hormuz a test of the utility of the U.N., and urged China and Russia not to veto it. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2026/05/06/world/politics/rubio-hormuz-resolution-un-vetoes/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #worldnews #politics #us #marcorubio #un #middleeast #iran #straitofhormuz

@thejapantimes The utility of the UN to help you attack other countries unprovoked? That鈥檚 not the purpose of the UN, Rubio. Same with NATO: it鈥檚 a defense treaty, not an attack treaty. The only way for these agreements to fail is if other countries went along with the US鈥檚 aggressive actions.
