The U.S. Secretary of State, Marco Rubio, announced that Iran has been designated as a 'state sponsor of illegal detentions', accusing the Iranian regime of using arbitrary detentions as a method of 'hostage diplomacy'. Rubio called for the release of American citizens who are unjustly held in Iranian prisons, emphasizing that these actions could lead to a review of this designation.

The statement comes amid rising tensions in the Middle East, with threats of American attacks on Iran. President Donald Trump also expressed disappointment regarding negotiations with Iran, suggesting that force might be a necessary option.
