US may exit Ukraine peace talks in days if there is no progress: Secy of State Marco Rubio

"The Ukraine war is a terrible thing, but it's not our fault," Rubio told reporters in Paris, after talks with Ukrainian and European officials.
"The President (Trump) has spent 87 days at the highest level of his government, repeatedly taking efforts to bring this war to an end. We are now reaching a point where we need to decide and determine whether this is even possible or not, which is why we are engaged with both sides" Rubio said.
