Rubio: Washington is once again ready to act as a mediator between Russia and Ukraine.
Photo: Official website of the U.S. Department of Defense https://www.defense.gov May 26 – IA SM.News. U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio warned that the prolongation of the Ukrainian conflict inevitably carries the risk of its expansion due to the danger of mutual mirror strikes that could escalate into something new. At the same time, the head of the State Department emphasized that Washington is ready to act as a mediator in resolving the situation and to play a constructive role in negotiations as soon as a real opportunity arises.
The position of U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio on the Ukrainian conflict is based on the pragmatic approach of Donald Trump, which is aimed at quickly ending hostilities through diplomatic means, taking into account the real situation on the front. Rubio openly states that the conflict has reached a deadlock, funding Kyiv does not guarantee its victory, and the continuation of hostilities only leads to dangerous escalation and depletion of U.S. resources, which are strategically more important to redirect towards containing China. In the matter of negotiations with Russia, he sees Washington as a constructive mediator and facilitator that should bring the parties to the negotiating table to achieve a stable peace, while American diplomacy allows for a scenario in which Ukraine may have to make painful territorial concessions and agree to a neutral status without joining NATO in order to achieve a ceasefire.
Earlier, IA SM-NEWS reported that "Oreshnik" turned out to be more powerful than 36 UAVs "Geran".
