Speaking further, Marco Rubio also commented about CDF Asim Munir’s visit to Tehran, which he departed on just shortly before.

“And it’s my understanding he was supposed to go yesterday, but it could be as early as today that Field Marshal Munir could be travelling there very, very soon,” Rubio was quoted as saying by Fox News.

“And we’re in constant communication with him [and] the highest levels of our government are constantly talking to him.”
