The secretary of state, heading to talks with Ukrainian officials in Saudi Arabia, said future talks with Moscow will be needed to determine what Russia is willing to give up to end the war.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio said on Monday that Ukraine would have to make concessions over land that Russia had taken since 2014 as part of any agreement to end the war.

Mr. Rubio spoke as he was flying to Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, for talks with senior Ukrainian officials, and 10 days after a contentious White House meeting between President Trump and his Ukrainian counterpart, Volodymyr Zelensky. The Trump administration halted military aid to Ukraine after the blowup, which centered on Mr. Trump’s refusal to include any security guarantees in a proposed deal involving Ukraine’s natural resources.

      Why is it always people like you that will never set foot on the frontline that are saying stuff like this?

      When can you enroll to stop WW3 if you really want the war to end?

      Why are you not stopping russia then if you want the war to end?

      Why are you promoting WW3 by asking Ukraine to surrender like Czechoslovakia surrendering to Nazi Germany which lead to WW2.

      Why are you not **guaranteeing ** peace (with Nukes or NATO membership) to prevent russia from expanding territories into Ukraine again? why are you promoting a forever war? Why are you not at the front line to stop russia from starting the war again and again?

        You’re free to go to Ukraine and help guarantee their protection and their territorial integrity, I don’t understand what’s stopping you. Why are you arguing here instead of packing your bags?

        I’m free to do the opposite and I’m content that my country has made it clear that we will not send any troops to Ukraine

              Because Ukraine is fully capable of defending themselves from Russia as long as all of its allies don’t bail on it.

      Why do you want WW3? Russia is doing what Hitler did with Czechoslovakia.
