Rubio says the goal is to expand negotiations about Ukraine to Europeans

U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio stated that the goal is to eventually include European representatives in negotiations regarding Ukraine, currently involving only the U.S., Ukraine, and Russia. Following a G7 meeting in Paris, Rubio expressed optimism about the ongoing talks in Abu Dhabi, which aim for a diplomatic resolution to the conflict. He emphasized the importance of European involvement in future discussions. Meanwhile, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov downplayed the significance of European representatives attending the negotiations, suggesting they should remain in their hotels. The talks focus on security guarantees and the future security architecture for Europe amid ongoing tensions.
