Ukrainian and Russian officials should prioritize ending the ongoing conflict, according to US Secretary of State Marco Rubio. During his visit to Uzbekistan on Monday, Rubio expressed skepticism about a potential meeting between US President Donald Trump, Russian President Vladimir Putin, and Chinese leader Xi Jinping to negotiate a resolution to the four-year war.
In response to inquiries about such a summit, Rubio stated that while the idea has been discussed, its finalization remains uncertain. Despite Trump's previous hosting of C5+1 leaders, which includes Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, and Turkmenistan, at the White House in November, Rubio emphasized the negative consequences of the war.
He highlighted the significant risks of escalation and potential spread of the conflict to other countries, driven by failed sabotage attacks or targeted drones with electronic warfare.
