US Secretary of State Rubio describes Iran as 'troublemaker of the region'

"Talking about the troublemaker of the region, it's Iran," US Secretary of State Marco Rubio told reporters at a summit of the Asean nations in Manila.

"The Houthis, Hezbollah, the militias in Iraq, Hamas - this is what Iran spends its money on, not on its people, on supporting terrorist organisations and destabilising actors in the region," Rubio added.
