Candidate US Secretary of State Marco Rubio spoke about the situation in Ukraine, noting the need for a speedy end to the war.
This was reported by URA-Inform with reference to the Resident Telegram channel.
“Very bad signals for Zelensky are coming from the United States. Perhaps Bankova is considering changing its position on the negotiations. Otherwise, Kyiv will find itself in a very weak position,” – it was said at the beginning, after which a special interview with Rubio was presented.
Rubio highlighted the devastating impact of the war on Ukraine, including loss of life, destruction of infrastructure and mass emigration, noting that rebuilding the country would require hundreds of billions of dollars and decades of work.
He expressed concern that prolonging the conflict could further exacerbate the humanitarian crisis, citing millions of displaced people and a decline in living standards.
“The main problem is not that Kyiv is running out of money. It is running out of Ukrainians who die in the war every year,” he said.
Then the conversation turned to the real situation in the context of the military conflict, and not to the “rose-colored dreams” of some individuals.
“This war must end as soon as possible. We need to be realistic: both Ukraine and Russia must make concessions,” Rubio said at the very end.
In addition, the insider had previously said that Yermak had set a new task for Trump.
