Rubio said Iran would not be allowed to charge Strait of Hormuz tolls.
President Donald Trump announced "major combat operations" against Iran on Feb. 28, with massive joint U.S.-Israeli strikes targeting military, government and infrastructure sites.
Following the announcement of a two-week ceasefire, initial U.S.-Iran talks in Pakistan earlier this month failed to reach a peace deal.
Trump later announced the open-ended extension of the ceasefire and the continuation of the blockade until Iran's proposal is submitted and discussions are concluded "one way or the other."

Iran’s foreign minister returns to Pakistan as peace efforts continue
Iran’s foreign minister, Abbas Araghchi, arrived in Islamabad Sunday following talks with Oman’s sultan in Muscat as regional diplomatic efforts to end the war continue, according to Iran's semi-official Tasnim News Agency.
Araghchi first arrived in Islamabad on Friday evening and met with Pakistan’s prime minister, foreign minister and army chief, in what Iranian media described as an effort to convey Tehran’s position on the conflict.
Tasnim also reported that Araghchi held phone calls with his Qatari and Saudi counterparts to discuss developments surrounding the ceasefire and ongoing diplomatic efforts related to the conflict between Iran and the U.S.
Oman has for years acted as a back channel for different negotiations between Tehran and Washington.
Since the U.S.-Israeli attacks on Iran began on February 28, Iran has launched strikes against several countries in the region, including Qatar and Saudi Arabia. Both countries are influential Arab states with close ties to the U.S., despite not being direct parties to the conflict.
