The US Department of State on Sunday said Secretary of State Marco Rubio will visit Saudi Arabia from March 10-12 for talks with his Ukrainian counterparts.
A statement by spokesperson Tammy Bruce said Rubio would also have a meeting with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman.
The spokesperson added that Rubio would then travel to Canada for the March 12-14 G7 foreign ministers’ meeting.
Recall that Rubio spoke with Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha on Friday and said that President Donald Trump wanted to end the Russia-Ukraine war as soon as possible.
Trump has paused military aid and intelligence sharing with Ukraine after a White House clash with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy on February 28.
The Ukrainian leader has said that he would also visit Saudi Arabia for a Monday meeting with Mohammed bin Salman and that Ukrainian diplomatic and military representatives would meet with the U.S. team on Tuesday.
