On Tuesday\u2019s broadcast of MS NOW\u2019s \u201cAna Cabrera Reports,\u201d Sen. Chris Van Hollen (D-MD) argued that \u201cit\u2019s kind of hard for the Iranians to be able to trust any American negotiators at this point in time.\u201d Because \u201cin the middle of negotiations, Donald Trump decided to bomb the Iranians.\u201d<\/p>\n
In response to a question on Secretary of State Marco Rubio and his role in negotiations, Van Hollen said, \u201cSecretary Rubio was part of the classified briefings that were provided early on to members of Congress. We\u2019ve been calling for public hearings, because we want the public to be able to see how bad the answers we\u2019re getting from administration officials are. Bad, meaning, they keep switching their statements regarding the goals of the war, they have no endgame. But, as to Secretary Rubio\u2019s current role, I don\u2019t know exactly what it is.\u201d<\/p>\n
He continued, \u201cWhat we do know is that Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, they were engaged in these negotiations with the Iranians, and, in the middle of negotiations, Donald Trump decided to bomb the Iranians. So, it\u2019s kind of hard for the Iranians to be able to trust any American negotiators at this point in time.\u201d<\/p>\n
