So, to recap, Ukraine and Europe understand that America has effectively endorsed a 28-point plan to force Kyiv to capitulate, set a Thursday deadline to accept it, and threatened to cut off all aid.
Now Marco Rubio says it's all wrong, that's not the plan, there's no deadline and no threat.

I was honoured to join the Speaker's ceremony remembering the millions of Ukrainians who perished in the Holodomor, a man-made genocide.
We remember their stories and recommit ourselves to the simple promise that must guide us always: never again.
