Russo-Ukrainian war, day 1205: Rubio congratulates Russia on national day as Russian war losses surpass one million
US Secretary of State Marco Rubio stated that “the United States remains committed to supporting the Russian people as they continue to build on their aspirations for a brighter future." Meanwhile, Ukraine’s Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha said it was "unpleasant" for him to read these public congratulations as he recently witnessed "Russian terror" in Kherson.
