The United States continues its efforts to end the Russia-Ukraine War. In a written statement, U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio said, "President Trump is determined to end the Russia-Ukraine war and to find a solution that leads to a lasting peace, not just a temporary pause. Next Monday, February 24, marks the 3rd anniversary of the Russia-Ukraine War. This war has lasted far too long and has exacted a terrible toll on both Ukraine and Russia. The U.S. is proposing a historic resolution calling on all member states to support the United Nations in drawing up a roadmap to peace. This resolution is consistent with President Trump's view that the UN must return to its founding purpose as stated in the UN Charter, which includes the peaceful resolution of disputes and the maintenance of international peace and security.
"WE CALL ON ALL STATES TO JOIN THE U.S."
If the United Nations is truly committed to its original purpose, we must acknowledge that the goal of lasting peace is achievable, even in the face of challenges. By supporting this resolution, we affirm that this conflict is horrific, that the UN can help bring it to an end, and that peace is possible. We believe it is high time to demonstrate our determination to end the war. This is an opportunity for us to create real momentum towards peace. We call on all UN member states to join the U.S. in this serious effort," he stated.
TO BE PRESENTED ON FEBRUARY 24
Minister Rubio also stated in a social media post that the U.S. will present its "historic" resolution aimed at ending the war to the UN General Assembly on February 24.
"A TURNING POINT"
Rubio said, "On Monday, three years after the Russia-Ukraine war began, the U.S. will propose a turning point resolution that all UN members must support to draw up a roadmap to peace."
TRUMP: I THINK WE HAVE A CHANCE
Meanwhile, U.S. President Donald Trump, who previously made a statement, noted that Russian President Vladimir Putin and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky need to meet, saying, "I want to see a ceasefire and for an agreement to be made. I think we have a chance to make a deal."
