Summary
Marco Rubio will make his first Middle East trip since the Iran war began, visiting the United Arab Emirates, Kuwait and Bahrain this week, the State Department said.
Tuesday-to-Thursday travel plans make the tour a short Gulf swing focused on three U.S. partner states rather than a broader regional circuit.
The visit comes with the Iran war still underway, putting U.S. diplomacy in the Gulf at the center of Washington's regional engagement.
