The Secretary of State also added that both sides will have to give up something, and these conversations are difficult.
“If it weren't for the help of the United States, including under the Trump administration, Ukraine would not exist now. Ukraine as a sovereign state would not exist,” Rubio told reporters on Wednesday during a visit to India, writes RBC-Ukraine.
Rubio was responding to a question about a publication in The Wall Street Journal. According to the publication, Elon Musk, head of SpaceX, ordered the Starlink satellite system to slow down its operation. It helps Ukraine repel Russian air attacks.
The newspaper refers to anonymous American and other officials. According to them, Musk discussed this decision with US President Donald Trump after information about the slowdown became public. Another source for the publication reported that Musk, an ally of Trump, spoke about this with administration officials even before the changes took effect.
“It's not true that we somehow knew about this in advance or managed it,” Rubio said in response to a question about the newspaper's material.
According to him, he does not know whether the president knew about it in advance. In addition, the US cannot, in any case, control what a private company does with its product.
Rubio added that the US is no longer going to make excuses on this issue. He also noted that Ukrainian fighters are very courageously resisting Russia.
According to Rubio, very difficult negotiations are currently underway to end the war, which is now in its fifth year.
They are centered around the fate of Donbas in eastern Ukraine. To reach an understanding, the parties have already proposed several unconventional ideas.
“Both sides will have to give up something, and these conversations are difficult. I think Ukraine’s main desire is to ensure long-term security so that it is never attacked again,” Rubio said.
