Marco Rubio: It Would Be a Suicidal Move by Iran to Block the Strait of Hormuz

EXCERPT:

RUBIO: “Well, I’m not going to take options away from the president.  That’s not something we’re talking about right now in terms of being immediate.  But if they do that, the first people that should be angry about it are the Chinese Government, because they take – a lot of their oil comes through there.  So they should be the first ones that are saying, if they mine the Straits of Hormuz, the Chinese are going to pay a huge price and every other country in the world is going to pay a huge price.  We will too.  It’ll have some impact on us.  It’ll have a lot more impact on the rest of the world – a lot more impact on the rest of the world.  That would be a suicidal move on their part because I think the whole world would come against them if they did that.”
