The secretary of state, heading to talks with Ukrainian officials in Saudi Arabia, said future talks with Moscow will be needed to determine what Russia is willing to give up to end the war.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio said on Monday that Ukraine would have to make concessions over land that Russia had taken since 2014 as part of any agreement to end the war.

Mr. Rubio spoke as he was flying to Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, for talks with senior Ukrainian officials, and 10 days after a contentious White House meeting between President Trump and his Ukrainian counterpart, Volodymyr Zelensky. The Trump administration halted military aid to Ukraine after the blowup, which centered on Mr. Trump’s refusal to include any security guarantees in a proposed deal involving Ukraine’s natural resources.

      I’m not sure about that, I feel like the image of America now is it’s true image. A culture of pawns ignorant or arrogant, priveleged and blind to reality, probably due to the favorite pass time of consumerism of bullshit everything. Their escapism from reality like junkies. Americans made the America we are living in and are all to blame. Americans are an embarrassment to authentic and genuine human life.

      I am American. I have the qualities I just spoke of too, it’s indoctrined in us, it is the image, the brand of America to be this way.

        Yes, and that’s embarrassing.

        A culture of pawns ignorant or arrogant

        I find that it’s “ignorant and arrogant” not an “or”. The two usually come together in my experience.
