REPORT: Ukraine peace talks in Geneva ‘productive and meaningful,’ Rubio says

November 24, 2025

U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio said Sunday that peace talks with U.S., Ukrainian and European officials gathered in Geneva, Switzerland, were “probably the most productive and meaningful meeting we’ve had so far in this entire process since we became involved.”

Officials met in Geneva at the U.S. Mission to discuss the contentious American peace plan proposal put to Kyiv this week, with terms critics say would constitute a Ukrainian capitulation.

In a brief gaggle with press at the U.S. Mission, Rubio noted that the presidents of both countries would have to approve any framework, but said he was “comfortable” they would.

“We’re making some changes and adjustments in hopes of further narrowing the differences and getting closer to an outcome that both Ukraine and the United States can be comfortable with,” Rubio said.
