Rubio discusses way forward on Ukraine ceasefire with European counterparts

On May 11, 2025, Marco Rubio, the US Secretary of State, participated in a telephone discussion with leading diplomats from Europe and Ukraine to address the possibility of achieving a ceasefire in Ukraine.
The call followed Ukrainian President Zelenskyy's public backing of US President Trump’s push for full and unconditional ceasefire talks in Istanbul scheduled for May 15.
Leaders including Germany’s Chancellor Merz, France’s Macron, the UK’s Starmer, Poland’s Tusk, and Zelenskyy previously met in Kyiv, reiterating the need for a ceasefire before negotiations.
State Department spokesperson Tammy Bruce conveyed Rubio’s statement that the United States is focused on stopping hostilities swiftly by securing a ceasefire, which would create conditions for diplomatic efforts aimed at achieving lasting peace.
The talks could mark the first direct Ukraine-Russia negotiations since early 2022, but ceasefire violations continue amid uncertainty about Russia’s commitment to halt hostilities.
