Rubio spoke to the Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha on Friday, "to reaffirm Trump's commitment to terminate the conflict in Ukraine, including by effective action in the United Nations Security Council," said the spokeswoman for the Foreign Ministry, Tammy Bruce. The US resolution draft is briefly caught and mourned "the tragic loss of lives in the entire Russia-Ukraine conflict" and "calls for a quick end to the conflict and urges a permanent peace between Ukraine and Russia".

In contrast, the draft resolution designed by Ukraine refers to "the comprehensive invasion of Ukraine by the Russian Federation" and reminds that all previous assembly resolutions "have to affect aggression behavior towards Ukraine".

Russia's demands and the reaction of Ukraine
Russia has previously demanded that Ukraine give control over large parts of its area and give its application for NATO membership-conditions that Kiev rejected as unacceptable.

The public dispute escalated after Selenskyj Trump accused Trump of repeating Russian misinformation, which led Trump to describe his Ukrainian counterpart as a "dictator without elections" and accused him of blackmailing the United States to invest hundreds of billions in a war that cannot be gained. " The attacks are made while the US president made it clear that he wants to end the war as soon as possible-even if this continues to lead to territorial losses for Ukraine. Trump caused a sensation last week when he preferred to make a 90-minute phone call with Russian President Vladimir Putin before talking to Selenskyj.
