Senator Marco Rubio delivered a clear message to European allies during Tuesday’s NATO summit in The Hague: Under Donald Trump’s leadership, the United States does not plan to impose new sanctions on Russia. Why? Because Trump wants to keep the door open for possible negotiations with Vladimir Putin.
In an interview, Rubio said that further sanctions could derail the possibility of a ceasefire between Russia and Ukraine. “If we hit them hard now, we’ll lose the ability to negotiate with Moscow. And who will talk to them then?” he warned. Calls from European leaders and Ukrainian President Zelenskyy for a tougher stance on the Kremlin were thus rejected.
Trump, for his part, wants to preserve diplomatic space. When asked if Putin offered help, Trump said: “He called me and offered help with Iran. I told him: I don’t need help with Iran, I need help with you.” His goal, he said, is to reach a peace deal with Russia – despite the ongoing offensive in Ukraine.
Rubio’s Warning: Moscow Wants to Take by Force What It Couldn’t Get at the Table
Rubio acknowledged that Russia is trying to achieve on the battlefield what it failed to secure at the negotiating table – namely, control over certain Ukrainian territories. While Washington does not agree with this approach, Trump’s team is clearly unwilling to sever communication with the Kremlin.
“We’ll continue to engage. If there’s an opportunity to change something and bring them back to the table, we’ll take it,” Rubio stated.
As Trump Waits, Russia Deepens Its Alliance with Iran
While Western diplomats focus on the war in Ukraine, Russia and Iran have quietly been building a strong military and nuclear alliance. Tehran has already supplied Moscow with thousands of Shahed drones, which are now used to bombard Ukrainian cities.
Both nations are also continuing the development of their nuclear programs – despite Western pressure. Russia, for example, completed construction of the first nuclear power plant in the Middle East, located in Iran.
Israel Under Fire – Ceasefire Collapses
Tensions are also heating up in the Israel-Iran conflict. On June 13, Iran launched rockets at Tel Aviv and other Israeli cities, killing civilians, including five Ukrainians. Trump attempted a quick ceasefire – but it lacked enforcement and quickly fell apart.
The United States now faces a crucial dilemma: maintain a path to diplomacy with Moscow or side with European calls for a tougher approach? So far, Trump is charting his own course – and Europe is starting to wonder what it can really expect from Washington.
