US Secretary of State Marco Rubio signaled growing impatience with ceasefire negotiations in Ukraine, emphasizing the need for a decision within days. Following high-level talks in Paris, he stated that if a feasible short-term solution isn't achievable, the US may shift focus elsewhere. Rubio highlighted America's commitment to supporting Ukraine but clarified that the war is ultimately not America's fight. He acknowledged European involvement in discussions and suggested that their cooperation is essential for progressing towards a resolution, even as discussions about sanctions on Russia remain complex and contentious.
We need to figure out here now, within a matter of days, whether this is doable in the short term, because if it's not, then I think we're just going to move on.
The United States has been helping Ukraine over the last three years, and we want it to end, but it's not our war.
I think the UK and France and Germany can help us move the ball on this and then get this closer to a resolution.
Part of the sanctions against Russia, many of them are European sanctions that we can't lift, if that were ever to be part of a deal.
