Ukraine-Russia Agreement/ Secretary Rubio: US is against the surrender of the

Ukraine is not ready to give up its territories and the United States is not pressuring Kiev to hand over the Donbas region to Russia, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said.

During an interview with NBC, the Secretary of State commented on possible scenarios for a peace agreement between Ukraine and Russia.

Journalists asked whether the issue of transferring all of the Donetsk, Luhansk, Kherson and Zaporizhia regions, as well as Crimea, under the control of Russian leader Vladimir Putin had been discussed.

Rubio responded that the Ukrainians are not ready to make such concessions and no one has the right to force them to surrender. According to the Secretary of State, even if a peace agreement is reached, it will not include the transfer of these territories.

Rubio also said that the Ukrainians were not willing to give up on this and that no one was forcing Ukraine to surrender. He added that if a peace deal were to be reached, it would not be like this. 

Earlier, US President Donald Trump stated that Russian leader Vladimir Putin still wants Ukraine to withdraw from Donbas./CNA
