This was reported by UNN citing Rubio's interview with CNN.

Details

Marco Rubio questioned whether the Ukrainian leader genuinely desires peace in the war against Russia.

"When you start talking about this aggressively - and the president makes deals, he has been making deals his whole life - you are not going to sit people down at the negotiating table. And so you start to think that maybe Zelensky does not want a peace agreement. He says he wants one, but maybe that's not the case."

Reminder

Trump stated that for dialogue with the U.S. to resume, Zelensky must express a willingness for peace. According to Trump, without U.S. support, Ukraine cannot win the war.

President Volodymyr Zelensky denied Donald Trump's claim that Ukraine only wants to "fight." He emphasized that Ukrainians seek a just peace but require security guarantees.
