US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said he discussed a new approach to resolving the conflict in Ukraine with Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov, and will inform US President Donald Trump about it.
When asked whether Lavrov came up with some new ideas on the Ukrainian settlement, Rubio replied: "Yes, I think it’s a new and a different approach."
"Again, I would not characterize it as something that guarantees peace, but it’s a concept that we will take back to the president today as soon as I finish with you," Rubio added.
He added that contacts with Russia will continue.

ReplyDeleteLe président américain Donald Trump a déclaré lundi que les États-Unis enverraient des armes supplémentaires à l’Ukraine, après que la Maison Blanche a annoncé suspendre certaines livraisons la semaine passée.
« Nous allons devoir envoyer plus d’armes, principalement des armes défensives », a déclaré Donald Trump, qui s’est dit « mécontent » à l’égard de Vladimir Poutine.
Germany is prepared to buy Patriot air defense systems from the United States and provide them to Ukraine, German Chancellor Friedrich Merz said in Rome on Thursday.
ReplyDeleteThe US has never stopped supplying military aid to Ukraine, despite reports of a Pentagon-ordered suspension, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio claims. He insisted that shipments were only temporarily paused to assess stockpiles.
ReplyDeleteLast week, a Pentagon spokesman confirmed that some arms deliveries, including air defense interceptors and artillery shells, had been paused. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, a vocal skeptic of further aid to Kiev, reportedly made the decision without consulting allies or lawmakers. The move raised concern in Europe and drew criticism from Ukrainian officials.
“That decision unfortunately was mischaracterized,” Rubio said at a press conference. “It was a pause pending review on a handful of specific type munitions.” He described the review as “very limited” and aimed at ensuring that US stockpiles remained sufficient for other global obligations.
“The overwhelming majority of military aid that the United States provides Ukraine has never been paused and continues along the same schedules that it's been,” he insisted.
