Jerusalem: State Secretary Marco Rubio said that American relations with Israel remained unchanged despite the Israeli strike to target Hamas negotiaters in Qatar last week.
“We’re going to continue as strong colleagues and partners,” Rubio swore in a special and comprehensive interview with Fox News in Jerusalem. “As the President said, he was not happy with the way he reduces things. It does not mean that we are going [to] Stop as his partner and his colleague. ,
Rubio told Fox News that he is now going to Doha on Tuesday, where he would urge Qatar to continue “creative role” in ending the war in Gaza and achieving the release of the hostages organized by Hamas.

“We are going with him again very soon in the next day,” said Rubio. “We understand that they are upset about it. We understand the position of Israel on it. Despite this, we still have hostage we want to release. We still have a Hamas that should be defeated or eliminated or removed so that we can achieve the peace that everyone says they want.”
A trip to Qatar, a major non-NATO colleague of Rubio, arrives just a day after the country hosted a billion-Islamic summit on the Israeli strike. A draft proposal from the summit “blames Israel for threatening the possibilities of peace and co -existence in the region.”
Rubio told Fox News, “We are trying to focus on everyone to move forward, not just focus on what happened in Doha last week.” “We want everyone to concentrate [what] Comes forward, because we still have these problems that we have to solve. ,

Rubio refused to say whether the United States supports Israel’s plans to move forward with anxation in some parts of the West Bank, but blamed countries for forcing Israel’s hand that they would recognize a Palestinian state.
“We have warned that it will now force Israel to do things in response to this, and I think a part of this conversation is in response to what is coming from other countries with the move of Europe and Canada and this Palestinian state, which are largely symbolic, which are largely symbolic, but still these are difficult to find peace.”

Rubio denied that Russian President Vladimir Putin was “embraced” by his summit with President Trump last month, despite the recent Russian drone incidents in both Poland and Romania.
Rubio told Fox News, “This is an example of why this war is, the President feels that the war needs to end. The war will usually move forward. They will really get spoiled, not better,” Rubio told Fox News. “Understand that these drone operations are away from the front lines. They have no effect on the next lines. They are designed to weaken each other on a large scale, and Ukraine are also attacking in Russia, and it is one of the reasons that the President has said that he wants to end this war.”
Rubio also raised the issue with claims, the United States “a reward” on the head of Venezuela leader Nicholas Maduro, which was after the announcement of a reward of $ 50 million for information for his arrest last month.

“Nicholas Maduro was inspired by the southern district of New York. A grand jury returned an indictment. They read the evidence, he saw the evidence, he returned an indictment, not only personally, but against a network of people of that country, who claims to be the government against the United States to operate drug trafficking against the United States.
He said, “He is not the president of Venezuela, this is the title he himself has given,” he said. He said, “What is that, that is the one who empowers himself about some of the appliances of the government, and they are using it to operate a drug cartel from the Venezuela region,” he said.

“When you traffic traffic in the United States, you are focusing in the internal affairs of America, when you are advancing drugs towards the United States, you are a direct threat to national security and national interest of the United States. And that is what we are addressing here.”
