🚪 Rubio ordered Iranian delegation to leave the US — report

Secretary of State Marco Rubio demanded Monday that Iran's delegation to the UN General Assembly immediately leave the country, Axios reported, citing a US official and a second source familiar with the matter.

The Iranians were likely to depart soon anyway but Rubio's move made it a public expulsion in a highly unusual diplomatic rebuke.

The US spent weeks presenting itself as the party seeking peace — while rejecting Iran's Hormuz plan publicly, denying its own reported offers, and now expelling Iran's diplomats from American soil.

If Rubio's order is confirmed, it exposes the real motive behind the “peace talks”: not negotiation, not compromise, but pressure. Iran was told to leave before it could be seen leaving on its own terms.
