Rubio blasts ‘stupid media narrative’ of Trump bullying Zelensky into deal

Secretary of State Marco Rubio appeared on CBS's Face the Nation on Sunday to challenge claims that President Trump is bullying Ukrainian President Zelenskyy into a bad peace deal with Russia.
These claims stem from concerns among European leaders, who are attending a White House meeting Monday over fears that Zelenskyy might be pressured into an unfavorable agreement.
Rubio rejected this narrative as a "stupid media narrative" and said the meeting is the result of weeks of collaboration with European allies aimed at progressing toward a peace agreement.
He expressed a desire to achieve a peace agreement that would bring the conflict to a close and allow Ukraine to recover, and he denied the allegations that Trump pressured for a ceasefire or engaged in bullying.
This exchange suggests the administration remains committed to diplomacy without sanction escalations, emphasizing Ukraine's role as the ultimate decider in any peace deal and continued allied cooperation.
