The U.S. intends to reduce its involvement in mediating Russia-Ukraine talks, urging both sides to take the lead in resolving the conflict.
The United States says it intends to scale back its role as mediator in peace talks between Russia and Ukraine, though it says it remains committed to supporting efforts to end the war.
The shift comes after months of stalled diplomacy aimed at brokering a deal to end Russia’s three-year invasion of Ukraine.
A State Department spokesperson said the U.S. will no longer “fly around the world at the drop of a hat” to mediate talks, emphasizing that it is now up to Kyiv and Moscow to present concrete proposals for ending the conflict.
In April, U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio warned that Washington may be ready to “move on” from ceasefire efforts if no progress is made.
The policy shift also reflects growing frustration from President Donald Trump, who has repeatedly warned of the risks of escalating violence.
