US Secretary of State Marco Rubio jokingly responded to a journalist’s question about whether he would discuss the issue of Ukraine with the new UK Foreign Secretary Ed Miliband.
“Elchi” reports that “C-SPAN” provided information about this dialogue.
“What kind of question is that – ‘Will we talk about Ukraine?’ Of course, we will talk about it. I think we will also talk about intergalactic issues and various other topics,” the head of US diplomacy jokingly said.
The State Department had previously issued a statement following the meeting between Rubio and Miliband. The statement noted that the parties discussed the importance of strengthening Europe’s role in ensuring its own security.
On August 1, Rubio stated that the US intends to try to resume negotiations between Russia and Ukraine regarding the resolution of the conflict in the near future.
