The US government said on the 18th that if there is no progress in resolving the Russia-Ukraine conflict, it will no longer participate in mediation. On the same day, Russian Security Council Deputy Chairman Medvedev expressed through social media: "This is a very wise move. The EU should also do so. In this way, Russia can come up with (a solution) faster."
Earlier on April 18, US President Trump and US Secretary of State Rubio both made "giving up" remarks.
Trump said that if one party "makes reconciliation very difficult," he is prepared to stop efforts to mediate the end of the Russia-Ukraine conflict.
When asked how long he was still willing to wait, Trump refused to set a specific deadline. He replied: "Marco (Rubio) is right... We hope to see this end." When asked whether Putin was delaying, he said: "I hope not."
