We’ll know in weeks, not months, whether Russia is ready for peace - Rubio

Secretary of State Marco Rubio believes that in a few weeks it will be known whether Russia is ready for peace.
He said this at a press conference after a meeting of ministers of NATO countries, Censor.NET reports.
"This is what the president wants to do. He wants to end the war and he wants to do it very early in his administration. It is possible to end this war on terms acceptable to both sides. If both sides agree. And we are now in the process of finding those terms, and we will soon know - in weeks, not months - whether Russia is ready for peace," he explained.
According to Rubio, if the Ukrainians have shown their readiness for a ceasefire and the creation of a space for negotiations, then "soon, not in six months, Russia and Putin will have to decide whether they are ready for peace or not."
"I hope they are ready, and it will be good," he concluded.
