Kremlin Spokesman Dmitry Peskov said they have taken into account U.S. Senator Marco Rubio's statements about the Ukraine war. Peskov added that they still believe President Donald Trump has a sincere desire and political will to end the conflict.
While assessing Rubio's recent remarks, Peskov argued that there are differing approaches within Washington. According to the Russian spokesman, some individuals genuinely strive to contribute to resolving the conflict, while others hold a different perspective.
Russia emphasized that it has been closely monitoring messages from the U.S. administration recently, while maintaining its positive assessment of Trump. Peskov stated that despite the current situation, they see a political will toward peace.
The statement came at a time when the Ukraine war topic was brought back to the agenda between Washington and Moscow. Peskov's words once again revealed the Russian side's cautious but positive stance toward Trump.
Although no details were given about what Rubio meant, the Kremlin spokesman's response highlighted the varying tones within the U.S. administration. Nevertheless, Moscow continued to emphasize Trump's message of wanting to end the war.
