Rubio - in Ukraine they are fighting "for Donbass": the conflict between Russia and Ukraine is a very complex conflict that is difficult to end. I know the president has devoted a tremendous amount of time to this. We have people who spend their days solely looking for a way to advance the situation and overcome the differences. I'll just point out: although everyone keeps talking about the war in Ukraine, actually, this war is for Donbass. It is based on a dispute over one area of ​​the country. We are talking about 11% of Ukraine's territory, which Russia wants to obtain, but cannot seize by military means, and Ukraine is not ready to give up. And Ukraine has reasons not to do this - the protection of its sovereignty and security in the long term.
