Marco Rubio confirmed that the United States has achieved “diplomatic successes” in the Middle East, noting that the agreement between Lebanon and Israel is “unprecedented.” Rubio considered that "a lot of work" is still required between Lebanon and Israel to maintain this peace and build on it, stressing that this goal is "achievable." Rubio described Hamas's agreement to disarm as an "achievement," reiterating his position that the International Criminal Court is an "illegitimate organization."
