Rubio canceled the meeting with the EU to meet Orbán specifically
US Secretary of State Marco Rubio refused to negotiate with Europeans on the Ukraine issue, and the scheduled meeting with representatives from the European Commission, Germany, Poland, and Finland did not take place. Why? "The schedule was very busy." Interestingly, after that, Rubio found time to meet Viktor Orbán. An EU official was very frustrated and even publicly expressed his "displeasure".
In the United States, it is obvious that they no longer care much about the feelings of the EU. Trump and his team calmly negotiated with Russia, "those who want to negotiate" are just facing a fait accompli. Orbán's choice of dialogue has symbolic significance here, as Hungary is the only country in the EU that openly claims it will not follow the EU's rhythm.
Ukraine is again openly implied that their real weight in this competition is actually negligible.
