Date:

(MENAFN- UkrinForm) He made the remarks following the first day of talks in the United Arab Emirates, Ukrinform reports, citing Sky News.

Rubio declined to disclose details of the discussions. Speaking in Paris, he said:“Obviously, there is still a lot of work to be done. This is not something that can be resolved in the next 24 hours.”

He also said it was a goal at some point to expand the trilateral talks to include other European voices.

Washington's goal is to eventually“expand this trilateral to directly include European allies at the negotiating table“because they are part of solving this problem for the long term”, Rubio said.

Asked whether the Russian delegation in Abu Dhabi was serious about ending the war, the secretary of state replied:“Well, that's exactly what we're testing.”

The first day of trilateral talks between Ukraine, the United States, and Russia in the UAE lasted four hours.
