US President Donald Trump may at some point come to the conclusion that reaching a settlement in Ukraine is impossible, but for now the American leader is making efforts to end the conflict, said US Secretary of State Marco Rubio.

Before leaving Tel Aviv for Doha, the US Secretary of State was asked about the “red lines” in Ukraine.

Trump is trying to do everything he can to end that conflict. The US is working closely with its European partners on security guarantees, as that will be necessary for any negotiated settlement. And Trump will continue to try. He believes it is possible, he wants to achieve it. At some point, however, Trump may conclude that it is impossible. He has not reached that point yet, but he can get there. But he is truly willing to do whatever it takes. There is a way to stop this war, and Trump just wants it to end, responded the US Secretary of State.
