Rubio: No Near-Term Prospects for Negotiated End to Ukraine Conflict

U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio stated in an interview with Greek outlet Kathimerini that there are currently no prospects for a negotiated settlement of the Ukraine conflict. This signals continued diplomatic stalemate and reinforces expectations of prolonged hostilities. The statement aligns with recent U.S. policy but marks a clear public dismissal of near-term peace talks.
