“There may be a US presence there, but it won’t be Steve (Witkoff) and Jared (Kushner),” Marco Rubio said.
At the hearing, he called the issue of the future status of Donbas one of the most difficult stages of the peace negotiations, the resolution of which the parties have not yet come close to.
As you know, on January 26, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy announced that another meeting of the negotiating teams of Ukraine, the United States, and Russia is being prepared this week – tentatively, on Sunday, February 1.
