During a CNN interview, Secretary of State Marco Rubio reaffirmed the Trump administration's neutral stance in the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, despite previously labeling Vladimir Putin as a 'butcher.' While Rubio criticized Russia's tactics, including conscription and the involvement of North Korean troops, he advocated for negotiation rather than condemnation. Collins confronted Rubio about his past comments on Putin, highlighting the tension between moral clarity and diplomatic strategy. Ultimately, Rubio underscored the goal of achieving peace and negotiations over making accusations against Russia.
I mean, they're conscripting by the hundreds of thousands. They brought North Korean troops that were slaughtered in Kursk. And they keep going because they got more people.
You don't get people to the negotiating table when you're calling them names and you're accusing them of things because, at the end of the day, this is not a political campaign.
