【Rubio: Ukraine's GDP will surpass Russia in 10 years, the US is working to achieve Ukraine's economic prosperity and independence】
On December 2, 2025, Washington time, U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio said on the Fox News television program:
We tried at that time, I think we have made some progress, to understand what the Ukrainians can agree to, which would provide them with future security, so they will never be attacked again; this not only allows them to recover their economy, but also to flourish as a country, becoming a country of economic growth. Theoretically, doing the right thing, Ukraine's GDP may surpass Russia in ten years.
Rubio added:
Stop the war, protect Ukraine's long-term sovereignty and independence, so that it does not become a puppet state, but a truly independent sovereign state. Let its economy not only recover, but also flourish, turning its story into a success model. This is exactly what we want to achieve.
