region. you have seen us take action against the proxy groups when they attack the united states. we have sent a clear message to iran. it was a message the secretary sent throughout this trip that we don't want to escalate this conflict. we don't think it's in the interest of the united states. we don't think it's in the interest of iran or the broader region or the world. we will be clear, we will defend the interests of the united states. iran should get that message loud and clear. >> the israeli prime minister has, according to reuters, issue aid statement saying that israel has made a deal with qatar to get medicine to hostages being held in gaza. do you know anything about that? >> i will let those two countries speak to that. we did discuss various arrangements when we were in qatar, meeting with the emir and the prime minister there, as well as in our meetings with prime minister netanyahu and the war cabinet. we discussed a number of ongoing efforts we have to secure the release of the hostages. it was work the united states

palestinian rights, for a palestinian state. this prime minister and some of his ministers have refused. the secretary really ran into a brick wall with netanyahu and those right wing ministers. what is the chance israel will make the hard decision the secretary has been caming for, which could lead to a different future, a more secure future he says for all sides in the middle east? >> andrea, i will say this is the secretary's fourth trip to the middle east since october 7th. there was a difference in this trip from the first three. in the first three trips, the arab partners we went and talked to were not ready to discussion issues around the day after, reconstruction of gaza, security in gaza and governance in gaza. the secretary met with -- traveled to nine countries and met with leaders in each of those and was able to secure

choices for any of the countries. what we can do is play a leadership role in presenting a vision that is different than the vision from october 7th but greater for integration and peace and prosperity in the region. that's the vision the secretary will continue to present and will continue to press in what i'm sure will be a number of future trips to the region in the coming weeks and months. >> thank you so much, matt miller. thanks for coming on after a very rigorous eight-day journey. >> thank you. ready to caucus. up next, kristin welker live in iowa and jen psaki backfrom biden's headquarters. you are watching "andrea mitchell reports" on msnbc. ea mitchell reports" on msnbc

i think the real determining factor here has been the ability for them to build a coalition. we have been hearing the u.s. and british militaries who took the strikes last night, but u.s. officials have been quick to point out that other nations supported the strikes in a non-operational capacity. that's been really key. the u.s. did not want to go this alone. that's one of the reasons we saw the strikes come together and be carried out lastig. secretary austi did -- he was part of a video teleconference fromalr reed where they talked through the options. generally, that would be done in person. of course, he is hospitalized. we have continued to hear that he has been actively engaged in the discussions. we heard from john kirby about that just earlier this morning on msnbc. here is what he had to say. >> he was involved actively and intimately all day yesterday with the national security team here at white house and, of course, with the commander in

did to broker a deal through qatar to secure the release -- and i should say through egypt to secure the release during the first pause and their efforts to try to secure the release of more hostages. as always, we are not going to speak much to the efforts because we don't think they are helpful. any progress on that, including the delivery of medicine to hostages, is something the united states would greatly support. >> speaking about the secretary's trip, he was able to deliver a big carrot to israel, the possibility of diplomatic relations with saudi arabia. i know from my reporting how much prime minister netanyahu wants that. the arab leaders are willing to potentially rebuild gaza and help create a palestinian government to secure gaza if -- it's a big if, if the netanyahu government would agree to a tough decision for them, it's something they have not agreed to, which is a pathway for

joining me now to talk more about the u.s. attack against houthi rebels in yemen and the rising tensions in the middle east, just back from traveling to nine countries with the state department, is the top spokesman for secretary blinken. ninecountries, seven days. how long was that? >> seven days. i hope you have gotten more sleep than me. >> maybe a tad, but not a whole lot. let's say your responsibilities are bigger than mine. at every stop the secretary was telegraphing that if the houthis kept attacking critical shipping lanes there could be consequences. the u.s. is not looking, he said, to expand the war beyond gaza. but the houthis and iran have a say in all of that. what do you expect to happen? how will the u.s. respond? >> i will respond to that by reiterating what the secretary said. the united states does not want

agreements with the arab partners as well as with turkey they were ready to have conversations. they were ready to coordinate with the united states. they were ready to take real steps to improve the lives of the palestinian people in gaza and to look at how to rebuild gaza and establish palestinian-led governance in gaza. they were only willing to do that if israel was ready to take concrete steps to establish an independent palestinian state. the secretary when he went to israel did have this candid conversation with netanyahu and with other members of the israeli government. he made a speech to the israeli people to hear from him what the stakes were and what the potential benefits were. you could have real partners in the arab world, both to make assurances around israel's security, to ensure october 7th could never happen again. it's going to require tough choices. not just from arab partners but tough choices from israel. the united states can't make those tough choices for israel. we can't take motion tough

to escalate this conflict. we have made clear that from the beginning. the secretary thought it was very important thate have one on one conversations with leaders in the region where he could make absolutely clearhat while we will defend our interests, we will defend our personnel, as we have done, we have seen att against them in iraq and syria, and we will navigation and commercial om of shipping as we did last night, we do not want to escalate this conflict and we will not escalate this conflict. all of that said, there are important interests at stake for the united states. there are important interests at stake for the world. we will continue to take action to uphold those principles if and when it's necessary to do so. >> can you tell us anything about assessment of what was accomplished last night? >> i can't. my colleagues at the white house and pentagon can speak to that. there were a number of significant strikes that we believe had a positive affect. as to the actual assessments, i will leave that to my colleagues at the pentagon. >> do you know anything about

the houthis have been sent a message. it really needs to land not in yemen but in tehran. and all of this, frankly, houthis, hezbollah, hamas, they all begin with h, but the thing to remember is, they are all own and operated by iran. >> i was going to ask you about that. we were being told by those traveling with the secretary that iran is giving latitude to the houthis but is not necessarily directing these operations. what is your take? is the iranian regime behind this? are they going to become involved? we and they more drawn into this? >> i think the iranians will press through all three of these surrogates that they have created as well as the shia militias in iraq and syria. if you laid down a map of the ancient persian empire over
