The meeting between Secretary of State Marco Rubio and his Russian counterpart marked a turning point in relations between Washington and Moscow.

Summary

The U.S. and Russia started high-level talks in Saudi Arabia, marking a shift in U.S. policy under Trump.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio met with Russia’s Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov without including Ukraine or European nations.

The meeting raises concerns in Kyiv and among European leaders, as it could legitimize Russia’s territorial gains and weaken Ukraine.

Ukraine warned that any agreement excluding them would be invalid, while European officials feared Russia might exploit a ceasefire to regroup and launch further attacks in Ukraine or beyond.

    And I’m sure whatever they come up with will fuck over Ukraine making it basically impossible for them to accept the terms. Next thing you know the US will say that Ukraine are the aggressors that refuse to make peace and we have to start supporting Russia to keep them under control. Down the line you can throw in some buzzwords about safety and terrorism and now you have US troops in Ukraine on the wrong fucking side.
