Trump Pushes for Diplomatic End to Russia-Ukraine War, Says Rubio
US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said Thursday that President Donald Trump is committed to ending the Russia-Ukraine war and is hopeful for progress in talks with both nations in the coming days.
Speaking at a NATO summit in Turkey, Rubio emphasized the importance of the ongoing peace talks in Istanbul and reaffirmed the alliance’s commitment to unity. “The president of the United States has been abundantly clear he wants the war to end,” Rubio said, underscoring Trump’s willingness to support any mechanism that could lead to lasting peace.
Rubio reiterated Trump’s view that NATO must prevent wars, not prolong them. “There is no military solution to the Russia-Ukraine conflict,” he said. “This war is going to end not through a military solution, but through a diplomatic one.”
