The US Secretary of State, Marco Rubio, has stated that the prospects for ending the Russia-Ukraine war remain bleak, as Moscow and Kiev are not showing a willingness to compromise.

“Right now, the prospects do not look good and neither side is willing to make the necessary concessions to reach an agreement,” Rubio told the House Foreign Affairs Committee.

Rubio expressed disappointment that Russia, in particular, has been unwilling to make concessions to end the war.

He stressed that the war “has no military solution” and must be resolved through diplomacy, although he acknowledged that the US is not an “impartial mediator” as it continues to sell weapons to Ukraine.

He said Washington’s support for Kiev remains “unaffected” by the war in the Middle East.

I have some new news for you on that front today, but we stand ready to step in and play any positive role we can to end this destructive and escalating war,” Rubio said.
