Trump Putin has not offered any concessions / day

« He has not received any concessions, » Rubio said about Putin.

Rubio responded to Senator Gina Shahina, the leading democracy of the Senate Foreign Affairs Committee.

The Senator, for his part, said Trump, after returning to the White House, had given Putin a more incentive to hesitate to hesitate and grab more areas.

For China’s Russia’s support and because « President Trump has abandoned our levers, Putin does not feel forced to agree to stop fire in Ukraine, » Chahin said.

Rubio, for his part, said Trump did not want to impose new sanctions on Russia – a step taken by the European Union on Tuesday.

« If it is clear in the end that the Russians are not interested in the peace treaty and they just want to continue the war, then it is very likely that we will come to that, » Rubio said.

Trump « believes that at the moment, if you start threatening sanctions, the Russians will stop talking, and there is a value that we can talk to them and get them sitting at the negotiating table, » Rubio said.

Trump had stopped for a short time US military and intelligence assistance to Ukraine following a failed meeting with Ukrainian President Volodimir Zelenski, following a failed meeting with Ukrainian President on February 28.

Asked whether the US is still meeting Ukraine’s defense needs, Rubio admitted that there were problems with the Patriot anti -aircraft defense system, but stated that this was a logistics issue.

« For this, the Ukrainians have asked for additional, they have asked for air remedies – the » Patriot « system, which, frankly, we do not have, » Rubio said.

The US has asked allies NATO to transfer the « Patriot » system to Ukraine to protect the airspace above Kijiva and other regions, the Secretary of State said.
