Marco Rubio: “The State Department is bloated and overly bureaucratic.”

There's been talks of a meeting. I don't know whether it's been finalized, but the president has been clear. He'd like the war in Ukraine and Russia to end.

We want to see this region continue to thrive into the 21st century as a hub of commercial diplomacy, because it is in our interest – because it is our interest from both an economic standpoint and from a security standpoint as well.

What we want to accomplish at this meeting this week will put our countries further down the path of long-term prosperity and security.

Our goal there is to end this war. That’s what we want to do.
