What Did Rubio Say?

Rubio stated in an interview with CNN., “There was no need for Zelenskyy to “go in there and become antagonistic.” He reiterated that Trump wants to bring an end to the conflict and wants to get Russians to a negotiating table.

Rubio stated, “Well, apologize for turning this thing into the fiasco for him that it became. There was no need for him to go in there and become antagonistic. Look, this thing went off the rails. You were there, I believe it went off the rails when he said, let me ask you a question to the vice president, What kind of diplomacy are you talking about? Well, this this is a serious thing. I mean, thousands of people have been killed. Thousands and he talks about all these horrible things that have happened to prisoners of war and children. All true, all bad. This is what we’re dealing with here. It needs to come to an end. We are trying to bring it to an end.”

He further added, “The agreement could have been signed five days ago, but they insisted on coming to Washington. And it was a very and should have been a very clear understanding, don’t come here and create a scenario where you’re going to start lecturing us about how diplomacy isn’t going to work. So, as President Zelenskyy took it in that direction and it ended in a predictable outcome as a result. It’s unfortunate that was supposed to be this way, but that’s the path he chose.”
