Rubio says Ukraine and Russia positions are nonetheless somewhat far aside

Rubio is US Secretary of State and will soon also be US National Security Adviser after incumbent Waltz was fired.

• says Ukraine and Russia positions are still a little far apart
• it’s going to take a breakthrough soon on Ukraine to make this possible
• Trump have to decide how much time to dedicate to this

Separately:

• Chinese want to meet and talk
• Those talks will come up soon

• There’s a broader question about how much we should buy from China going forward

Also:

• Best opportunity for Iran

• Iran should not be afraid of inspectors including Americans

This is along the lines of what we heard earlier:
