Avoidance of a Subject
Marco Rubio, U.S. Secretary of State, believes that the violation of Polish airspace by Russian drones does not should be related to Vladimir Putin's conversations with Donald Trump in Alaska. In an interview with Fox News in Israel, he thus responded to the journalist's proposition that drone intrusions in Poland and Romania may have been due to Putin's audacity after gathering Trump in August. Rubio, however, disagrees with this.
I wouldn't say that after the meeting, he felt brave. I would alternatively say that this is an example of why the president thinks this war must end. Wars will usually escalate. They will deteriorate alternatively than improve if they proceed to follow the same path, especially in the case of a prolonged war specified as this, given that both sides are profoundly dug.
According to Rubio, drone attacks take place far from the front line and do not affect its course. They are primarily of the nature of common weakening of the parties to the conflict, and Ukrainians besides carry out attacks on Russia. Rubio stressed that the end of the war requires the consent of both parties, and so far it has not been achieved on the Russian side. He added that the conflict is not an initiative of Donald Trump, but a war he inherited, and that Trump is now taking action to end it.
Sanctions. Will they be introduced?
When asked how long president Trump intended to give Putin before the imposition of sanctions, Rubio explained that Trump did not set “artificial terms”, but restrictions could be imposed “at any point”. Rubio besides pointed out that, in accordance with Trump's position, restrictions must besides be introduced by European countries purchasing Russian oil.
The president has called on our European partners to impose the sanctions they ask of us themselves. So if they feel profoundly active in this matter, we want to encourage them to actually do what they ask us to do.
