Quote from Rubio: "It’s the policy of the United States that we want it [the war – ed.] to end. We want to do everything we can to help it end.

We're going to engage in making it end in a way that is sustainable, meaning we don't just want the conflict to end and then restart in two, three or four years down the road. We want to bring stability." 

Details: Rubio stressed that Ukraine is paying the highest price in terms of its energy infrastructure, "to the people and lives that are lost, to the millions of Ukrainians that have had to leave their country and are living overseas."

He added that everyone should "be very happy" that Donald Trump was elected president of the United States, because he wants to "promote peace in the world and bring an end to these conflicts".
