Speaking in Uzbekistan on the 19th, US Secretary of State Rubio said ending the Russia-Ukraine conflict is a US presidential priority and Washington will continue to seek opportunities to push for a resolution. Rubio said the US has spent nearly two years trying to end the war and that President Trump is open to any option that could help, but has so far seen no expected progress. He said Washington recently held off on new sanctions to see if ongoing negotiations between Russia and Ukraine produce positive results. Rubio described the conflict as complex and entrenched, with no clear victor and heavy damage on both sides; whether an agreement is possible depends on both parties’ willingness to compromise.
